Wet Boots...Thanks for the reply.
Was hoping someone from Texas would respond just to do a CYA in case some odd STATE rule was in place....
My faucets are past the required anti-siphon valves but do not have those faucet mounted hose end backflow as I didn't think it was needed as the sprinkler system took care of that issue..... Local licensed irrigator / sprinkler guy says it's against the law to have a faucet on a sprinkler line.... I wrote the state licensing office but no answer as yet.
I feel inclined to believe that they meant to not install a faucet from your sprinkler into the house to be used as a regular home faucet (although the water source is the same).... I see no logic in being able to squirt water from a sprinkler head but being illegal to have a place to attach a hose or fill a watering can.... Then again many rules defy logic..
