System Installation

Typical installation

The system is normally installed in a valve box, connected to the main line of the irrigation  
system after the back flow preventer and before the sprinkler valves. One unit will feed both  
drip and sprinkler zones that are downstream from the connection point.

Step 1

- Locate the installation point.

Connection must be made after an approved back flow prevention device. It is preferable to  
have the tank cap above the installation point in the sprinkler line if possible but it is not  
required for efficient operation. The connection can be made either vertically or horizontally  
in the sprinkler main line.

Step 2

- Shut off water by closing a valve 

at the back flow preventer or in the main  

line upstream from the connection point. Relieve the pressure from the line at the exhaust  
valve on the back flow preventer or by manually opening a sprinkler valve.
