Notes from 5/2024, setting up, repairing, and transitioning the yard hydrant behind unit 9 from 1/2" to 3/4" main line tubing:

Note: we need to purchase more irrigation tubing and connectors. I will show what Kay and I would like to purchase at landscaping mtg tomorrow 7pm



Next time: fix cut lines on zone 2 yard hydrant, finish zone 1 yard hydrant transition to 3/4" main line and rings, set sprinkler box in ch timer, look at drip line for east time 



East side testing

   Includes the wild area behind unit 9, by the swale, dog run orchard, east driveway 

Behind unit 9 on the red yard hydrant (see pic):

    We set up and orbit three valve timer from Kay's collection. Currently set to run zone 1 (the spiral)for an hour three times a week for now. 

  zone 2 runs south of the yard hydrant and waters the shrubs and several trees. It has a cut in the line we need to repair before it can be turned on. 


Started transitioning zone 1 (the spiral ) to 3/4 main line tubing and o-rings because the current 1/2 " main line is connected to emitters that aren't handling the pressure well. We didn't finish this
