Hi all,
I am having a problem with my sprinkler system, in particular with the backflow valve. It was leaking for a while (chugging) and then I fixed it by replacing the springs. Then I could turn on the sprinkler and it worked. But now again the sprinkler has stopped working. The problem is there is no water coming "into" the vacuum breaker (backflow valve). The water supply to my house is ok. I checked sprinkler controller and the solenoids. Everything is fine. Just that there is no water coming into the backflow valve. Should I replace it or there are other problems? Please advise.
