Added new controller and valves to an existing drip system.
Shortly after building our barndominium, Don installed six 5500-gallon rain tanks to collect the rain water from the roof. Two pressure tanks and a pump were installed to make the rain water available to the drip system. The drip system is comprised of four ~400 feet of 1/2 inch drip lines in the garden and sixteen trees around our wetlands on individual circles of 1/4 drip tubing off a single 1/2 inch solid line. These five runs were on hose-end timers from individual hose bibs. The new controller and valves replaced the five: hose bibs, timers, filters and pressure regulators; and allows control of all five lines from a central location.
