A water broom having nozzles that are at least partially made of a resilient material to ease removal, installation and alignment. The nozzles, being resilient, may be rotated in the apertures of the header to achieve proper alignment of the individual spray patterns. The nozzles are held in place in the apertures of the header by flanges formed during nozzle manufacture, or by flanges created by deformation of nozzles of tubular shape upon installation in the header.

A water spray apparatus comprising an elongated header of square tubing comprising four substantially flat walls and having ends which are crimped along a diagonal of the square to form generally flat end portions, said header having a plurality of apertures communicating between an interior and an exterior surface of one of said flat walls of said header; a tubular handle mounted to a flat wall of said header opposite said one wall in fluid communication with said header for grasping by an operator in an inclined attitude which usually orients the apertures downwardly toward the ground surface and the flat end portions of said header approximately parallel to the ground surface; a coupling means for coupling a water hose to said tubular handle; a wheel mounted to each of said flat end portions of said header and positioned below said flat end portion for movably supporting said header on the ground surface; and a nozzle mounted to said header in each of said header apertures, wherein each of said nozzles has a generally slot-shaped outlet for producing a generally flat fluid spray pattern, a resilient shank portion compressedly seated in said aperture, and a resilient flange portion that abuts in sealing engagement a peripheral portion of the interior surface of said one wall of said header about said aperture.
