I have a 6 zone irrigation system. No leaks that I'm aware of. Most of the heads have been replaced in recent years. When a zone starts up the water pressure craters for a moment then recovers. The gauge bounces I'm assuming that's the diaphragm in the pressure tank. It's currently set at the factory 38 PSI. The kick on is 40 PSI so I left it alone. Is there anything that I should be doing about this or is that normal operation and I never noticed before?
