I am installing an irrigation system in our front yard - sprinklers, drip and some faucets. There will be 9 zones - 6 sprinkler and 3 drip irrigation. My question is with regard to the Pressure Backflow Preventer (PVB) location within the system layout. My plan is to plumb it in (12" above the highest sprinkler) just before the automatic sprinkler valve manifold inlet and one water supply line to a pond. I was going to T-off before the PVB for the lines to the faucets I will be adding. I will be using a FEBCO 765.
I did look around online and in this forum but didn't find any information that completely clarified that my plan was a good one. If someone with expertise wouldn't mind letting me know if this works fine or what I should do differently and why, I would appreciate it. Also, should I T-off the supplies to the new faucets after the PVB, before or does it not matter?
Thanks in advance!
