Thank you for this video... this saved my butt. Pipe connected to the backflow on the outside of house burst. Happened to see your video and shut off the water immediately. Huge relief !
Thanks for the video. This saved my butt big time. Had a sprinkler pipe burst in the middle of the night in 20 degree weather and was able to shut off the supply before it cost me a fortune and eroded half my property. Extremely grateful!
Thanks for this video! Extremely helpful, I reviewed multiple videos and this was the only one that looked similar to my setup which was the source of the leak. Thanks again.
What if I think I have a line break between water meter and the sprinkler shut off valve? Do I have to shut off water at the meter for the whole house?
Unfortunately Yes, most of the time we find the shut off in the house when there is no backflow device. But there is no rule on that. When there is no backflow device the system was probably installed by someone who didn’t understand what they were doing and the rules go out the window. Good luck.
Hi Pablo! In the winter we turn off the water supply, use an air compressor to remove all the water from the system, and leave the test ports open as a procaution. This will prevent any freeze damage to the system.

How do you turn off the electric driven valves.?
Will you still have water inside home if you turn it off from the back flow?
This is the backflow device for your sprinkler system and will not effect the water in the house. Yes you will still have water inside your home.
@@HeritageLawnsKC Awesome. Thanks for the feedback!
Fantastic! Glad to help.
Thank you

And my house I do not have backflow shut off so I got to keep looking to find the shut-off valve for the sprinkler
Unfortunately Yes, most of the time we find the shut off in the house when there is no backflow device. But there is no rule on that. When there is no backflow device the system was probably installed by someone who didn’t understand what they were doing and the rules go out the window. Good luck.

I like Lifesavers ;). Thank you for the kind words

how do you insulate that PVB system for winter?
Hi Pablo! In the winter we turn off the water supply, use an air compressor to remove all the water from the system, and leave the test ports open as a procaution. This will prevent any freeze damage to the system.
