No water from a sprinkler system
Greetings yawl,
The place we are renting has a below ground sprinkler system. The system is controlled by a Hunter SRC i901 (inside) control panel. For grins, my wife thought that I was enjoying too much football instead of being busy with stuff. Any way, she was curious to know if I could get the sprinkler system working.
Sure enough, the panel was electricall dead. I replaced the b/u battery, and the 26VAC 750 m amp transformer and got the panel working again. I also verified that each of the 8 of the 9 stations that are being used are getting 26 VAC when they are selected. Only stations are being used. There is no wire attached to thee Master Valve terminal.
Now comes the major problem. No water. I did some research on the system and it seems that it is connected in-line with the main water, usually near the meter. Well I have searched every inch of ground between the meter and the house and I cannot find any other housing for the sprinkler system.
The house is on a crawl space and all of the wiring goes under the house. Is it possible (logical) that the plumbing for the sprinkler system starts under the house? Why you you put a cutoff valve under the house?
