Course Overview

Once an irrigation system is installed, the ability to troubleshoot repairs on-site becomes a “money skill.” The agenda will cover leak detection and repair and will allow ample time for discussions and questions. Bob Dobson covers repair of heads and solenoids, identifying and replacing malfunctioning valves, sprinkler maintenance, identifying and repairing leaking pipes and electrical troubleshooting.
