Patterns worth documenting
- The controller runs but a zone stays dry
- Heads barely rise or spray unevenly
- Water reaches pavement or structures
- The watering schedule no longer matches the yard
A useful diagnosis starts with the whole system: schedule, controller, valves, pressure, heads, coverage, and the path excess water takes.
A diagnostic review identifies the observable system problem and the appropriate next step. Repair scope depends on what can be confirmed at the property.
Include the zone number if known, when the problem started, what the controller displays, and whether water is active, weak, missing, or appearing elsewhere.
