Thanks for the responses. The shut off is a ball valve and I "tweaked" it a tiny bit and think I found the sweet spot so that seepage is now not occurring. Now I'm thinking about the future... what if the valve has to be replaced or fixed - I can imagine the size of the hole that wopuld be required to access the valve since it is so far underground. Is there anything I (or a plumber) can do to move the shutoff so that it is more accessible? Thanks
Hi, New to the forum with a quick question...My sprinkler system shut off is located about 4 feet down a PVC pipe. I use a long key to turn it on and off. I took the cap off this morning and there is water in the tube about half way to the top. I've never noticed this before. Is this an issue with the valve or normal? Thanks
