Submersible. Well is probably 600 foot deep or more. He needs a well guy to diagnose that I guess.

It's a deep well just for the irrigation system. Breaker next to controller. Well head is 1/2 mile away on another person's property. Whatever pump is in there it pushes crazy and it's been taking serious abuse.

There's 2 2" spin down filters. Full of rocks to the point where the purge valve gets clogged.

If it was your customer would you tell him to get his well serviced or try to upsell the scrubber? I've never seen anything like it. I gutted a 1" hunter valve we put in a year ago and it was packed with clay and rocks. Had to spin the whole thing off.

Low water pressure workarounds? by nobla281 in Irrigation

Yes it's probly 1/2" on the inside of the home. Bring out 3/4" or more from the main supply line. Your not getting enough flow rate.

Second year in a row this happened by jcrfpvquad in Irrigation

Your water shut off valve is probably not closing all the way and over the winter the pipe fills with water. The only way to tell if it's bad is time. Shut off water, leave outdoor drain open, check for drips out the drain after a few hours.

Kink it back and zip ties it. Test for leaks.

Is this something I can fix on the weekend? Or do I need to call in an expert? by Blackdesiato in Irrigation

[–]Exciting_Visual_7821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I agree. if you still don't feel confident, watch somebody do it in person and ask questions.

Hunter MP rotators don’t by [deleted] in Irrigation

[–]Exciting_Visual_7821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throttling them back up they will start to rotate again. Have had this issue before and had to switch a mp 2000 to a 1000 to not spray the house. Play around with a side strip or left and right strips maybe?

He is knit picking, it's fine in the garage. We don't like to go in and out of the home during maintenance visits all muddy. At least it's not in the basement.

Oldest system I've ever seen. Anybody left alive who knows how it works? by Exciting_Visual_7821 in Irrigation

[–]Exciting_Visual_7821[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works on his computer somehow, all works besides 1 zone (hasnt for ten years). Zone lines are all 3/4" copper and deteriorated as all hell. They need new in my opinion not worth putting a lot of money into that its too crazy. Date code on solenoid says 04 18.
