    Designing off 3/4" house line.

    Great! Thanks - this is what I needed to hear. Still curious - ever heard of those dancing balls in Blazing's drains? I'm really wondering if they are worth all this trouble...

    Designing off 3/4" house line.

    It is not "blazing the end of the line". It is a product sold by the company named "Blazing" called "end of lateral line drain". It's like any line drain plug, except: 1) it is combined with the 90deg elbow and adaptor from barb to thread (very convenient). 2) most importantly - it has this...

    Designing off 3/4" house line.

    What I get from my 3/4" house line is about 12GPM, meaning I can have up to 8GPM on each valve, and going 1" won't increase that, of course, but will minimize the decrease over 150' run...

    Designing off 3/4" house line.

    Off my house 3/4" line I installed 6 valve manifold - all 3/4". Now - 4 valves will water large zones taking 3/4" feed sprinklers. Should I: 1) step up to 1" and run main and lateral 1", and step down just before the sprinklers? 2) step up to 1" to main, and step down to 3/4" between main and...
