How To Fix Leaking Sprinkler Indexing Valve FAST DIY - Avoid Plumber

In this How To Fix Leaking Sprinkler Indexing Valve video we show you how to repair the leak that is coming from your sprinkler’s indexing valve. There are different places where an index valve can leak. A leak can come from the top of your indexing valve, or perhaps there is something wrong with the indexing disc inside your indexing valve. But in this case here the indexing valve had a very tiny crack along the round corner of its housing. Although the eye can barely see this small crack this was the source of a major leak at 60 PSI water pressure. Therefore many cities actually frown down on indexing valves and some cities may not allow you to install an indexing valve in a new installation anymore due to their history of leaking in wasting water. Some city inspectors may also require you to install a backflow preventer to prevent any issues or contamination from your sprinkler water from getting back into the city supply of fresh water.
