Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

One of Chorbie's TCEQ Licensed Irrigation technicians, Jacob Lowe, shares how to turn off the water to your sprinkler system without disrupting water to your home. This happens by turning off the double-check backflow valve. Whether you need to make some routine minor repairs or upgrades, or you're needing to make some major repairs - you'll likely need to shut your system off. But you, or your clients, won't want you to interrupt the water to the house. Shutting off the backflow valve is your solution. Watch to learn how to do this!

    What would you check if none of the sprinkler heads pop up, but yet the solenoid is good and water does flow through the valve when it is on?

    Hire us ;) Just kidding, but at that point, it is best to have an expert come out to do an evaluation.

    the backflow preventer doubles up as a shut off valve? Or is there supposed to be a seperate shut off?

    On some systems, good irrigators will install an additional ball valve. However, not all do, and in those cases, the double check functions as the shut-off!

    Help! What if my irrigation system doesn't have that valve? I just see wires. It was leaking all morning. Already turned water off to house. Help. I am freaking out. 😢

    We see here in North Texas that most shutoff valves are located below ground, however one of the most common backflow preventers within the United States would be a PVB unit, which can be found above ground. This is typically found near the house or at the highest point of elevation on the property (most commonly found underneath an artificial rock). Given the situation, our best suggestion is to reach out to a plumber or licensed irrigator to reinstate the flow of water to your home. Hope this helps!
