Setting up a water system framework for your yard or nursery permits you to keep your grass or different plants watered without investing energy doing it physically.
Some water system frameworks utilize the strain of the water line or fixture they associate with as a way to keep water moving through the lines. Notwithstanding, if the framework is excessively enormous or voyages uphill, this can bring about pressure drops and deficient watering. On the off chance that the base water pressure isn’t sufficient, you can add a siphon to the water system framework to keep the water streaming.
1. Estimate the pressure and flow requirements that your pump requires, even if you are replacing an existing pump. Calculate the flow in gallons-per-hour by adding the listed flow requirements for each sprinkler or emitter in the irrigation system, and calculate the pressure by attaching a pressure gauge to the faucet or pipe that the pump will connect to.
2. Select a pump that is rated for the flow and pressure it will encounter in your irrigation system. Take note of the electrical connection required to power the pump as well; many pumps use a 220-volt connection and will need a compatible outlet to operate.
3. Connect the pump to the irrigation system, making sure that the water supply from the house connects to the inlet valve and the irrigation system itself connects to the outlet. Cover the threads on the connectors with plumber’s tape before connecting the pump to prevent leaks.
4. Mount the pump relay controller nearby in a location where it is out of direct sunlight. Connect the controller to the pump according to the included instructions, then connect both the relay and your pump to your home electrical system.
5. Turn on the water flow to your irrigation system, then turn on the pump and the controller relay so the pump will begin pumping the water through the system.
