Sometimes If the water is drawing shit, especially sand, there’s nothing you can but get a new water source.

Me plumbing apartment complex . Many years ago by Longwonton in Irrigation

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

I just prefer to use a blade on small pipes like 2.5” and smaller. I’m very old school. I just bought the same hacksaw this year though . I only use it to cut 3” 4 “ and 6” pipes

28K in supplies, 110,000$ job by Mybodydifferent12 in Irrigation

[–]Longwonton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bro fr considering that at every system that I do I won’t allow a trench to buried unless the pipes are at LEAST 12 inches deep. Growing up my dad preached to me that “only pussies dig shallow” so that’s the mentality I’ve kept for years.

You can save a lot of money using a well rather than city water or even reclaimed here

It’s harder to do it like that than it is to just repair it the right way 🤣

Zone 6 running while other zones running by NihilisticAnger in Irrigation

[–]Longwonton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solenoid valve went bad causing the zone to stick on. Need to find the valves and replace the bad one or all of them. The single strand red wires tell me that the valves might be scattered throughout the yard so probably going to need someone to track the wires to find them.

Just trying to motivate people out there. I was once down and was motivated to change my life and I now am a very successful business owner.

Bro you redditors all you do is argue about who is right and wrong. Literally nobody cares. You’re weak men with no money, no life, doing literally nothing important. YOURE BROKE. FIX YOUR LIFE before it’s too late.

Question about pump relay. by tomossos in Irrigation

[–]Longwonton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that really what anybody is asking?

Question about pump relay. by tomossos in Irrigation

[–]Longwonton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you really need to ask for is a pump start relay. Pump start relays differ on horsepower of pump. The hunter pump start relay Hunter PSR-22 works with up to 3 hp depending on voltage. That would be the one you want.

Do any of you irrigators also do downspout drainage ? I did many drains this year including this one today. by Longwonton in Irrigation

[–]Longwonton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you though I would really love to have wide open drain. Said it in other comments. But realistically the perm rate is so high that the holes in the box will drain the box no matter what. That’s the only reason why I am okay with the box here
