My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Problem: Front Zone was working fine....Back Zone not...Drips off...Changed diaphram and bleeder valve in Automatic Valve for back....solinoids work fine....Backs not working....open bleeder valve on Back valve....sprinklers working great...bleeder valve shooting out water in irrigation box....close bleeder valve...back sprinklers shut off...solinoid still engaged until turned off by controller. Turned fronts on....opened bleeder valve....water shoots out....close bleeder valve...NOW Fronts not working either!!!!...Totally puzzled...any sugguestions? No rain sensors installed. Thanks in advance for any help!
