leak from valve at main
Question....
Firing up the sprinkler system for the first time this year. Went through the sequence of turning on the system (outside and basement)
When I turned on the water from the basement (main) tremendous leak and water backflow through the valve (screw type cap).
We did not winterize...........
What to do now?
Thanks[8D]
Get out your checkbook. Anything and everything could be broken.
1. repair/replace backflow
2. start system again
3. fix breaks after backflow...........
