    The anti-siphon valve in my sprinkler system keeps popping off completely. Why?
    Its like a mini geyser every time I turn the water on. I have followed the instructions for replacing the valve to the letter and it still happens. I have had this problem before. It stopped but I never knew why or what caused the problem. Today I am at my wits end. My house is 70 years old and I have no idea how old the sprinkler system is. Thank you any help you can offer.
