If only one sprinkler zone has weak pressure, focus on that zone’s valve, piping, heads, and demand before blaming the entire water supply.

A failed irrigation solenoid can keep a zone from opening or contribute to valve-control problems. Learn the common symptoms and what technicians test.

When a sprinkler valve will not respond, wire tracing can help locate the cable path, buried valves, and possible electrical faults.

A failed or bypassed rain sensor can let sprinklers run during wet weather. Here are the common controller, wiring, and sensor issues to check.

Wet spots, weak sprinkler pressure, bubbling soil, and unusually green turf can all point toward an underground irrigation leak.
