I want to put a sub panel in my shed for a few circuits. It’s roughly 150’ run from my panel in the house to my shed. I already have conduit run the whole way. I was given two pieces of wire that I wanna use and I already have a 8”x8” junction box. One wire is 6/3 THW submersible pump wire with...

I have a small rainbird sprinkler system I installed that comes off my hose bibs. I use a Orbit water timer on the sprinkler zones. The backflow preventers that came with the rainbird system restrict the water flow so much that the heads won’t pop up. I tried using shark bite in-line check...

I ran a 6/3 copper with ground 150’ from my panel to a 30 amp 120 volt RV plug. The problem I have is in the summer when my house ac is running the voltage in the RV drops to 106-108 volts. I know this is to low run anything in my RV. Question is would it fix my issue if I changed the breaker to...

I installed a 30 amp RV plug a few years ago and I never planned on running the air conditioner or the electric hot water tank. Now I want to be able to use the AC but I only ran 10/2 wire and the voltage drops to 105 volts. The run is 135 feet from my panel box so I was going to run 6 awg...

I’m looking for help on replacing my pressure tank. I have a Wellmate WM-9 tank now and I run a 6 zone sprinkler system. I want to stop my pump from cycling so much and a CSV will not work for me. I have already messaged back and forth with Cary and a CSV is not an option. I have a Goulds 7G 1hp...

I have 5 zones of the 32 eti sprinklers and now I have one zone that won’t pop up for some reason. All zones are run off orbit timers. The zone that isn’t working is on a three zone timer and I tried switching the hose lines around and the same zone won’t pop up so it’s not a timer or water...

I recently installed 5 zones of lawn sprinklers. They’re the rain bird 32eti kits that hook to a hose bib and use water timers to operate. While installing these I found my water pressure on my 40/60 switch was set at 55 psi and also I had 0 psi in my pressure tank bladder. I raised the pressure...

I have a drilled well which is 500’ deep with a 1 HP pump and a Wellmate WM-9 which is rated at 100 psi. My pressure switch is a 60/40 and I want to increase the pressure for sprinkler systems I’m installing. What’s the highest pressure I should go to ? I was thinking 50/70 or 55/75. I have both...

I’m going to be installing three Rain bird 32ETI sprinkler system and I have a few questions. My yard has roughly a 5ft vertical rise and runs 95 feet from where my hose bib is located. The 32ETI system says it can’t be more than a 6’ rise. Also all the tubing and fittings in the kit are 1/2”...

I just purchased the Rainbird 32ETI system for my front lawn. I checked my faucet and have 7 gpm(well water) and I’m not sure how I should place the sprinkler heads. I have a 12’x12’ deck in the middle of my house that extends to my blacktoped driveway which leaves 2 identical rectangular...
