Awesome thank you.Iam a licensed irrigation technician and working on getting my irrigators license here in San Antonio Tx. We don't come around to many pumps but when I do it helps to find videos on people working on them in the field.
You will be part of an elite set of people soon! When ever you need some advice on troubleshooting I’m the guy bro! Please subscribe is you haven’t. It feels real good to see people better than selves the grass is greener with hard work along with the business side of it I can let you know all about that and how to get yourself to the next level you can do it and I believe in you!
I will be posting up new videos..can you subscribe to my channel that will let me know if I’m doing a good job or not and it will be an honest feedback. Thank you so much for everything
Thank you so much. This was a very well done video, very informative. Also you have a very likable personality, I could picture you doing a channel just talking about events, news politics or whatever pops into your head. People would listen and watch you because you' have a well spoken, down to earth style and personality .. Keep up the good work and thanks again.
God bless you. The reason why I opened up my channel is to showcase my talents and people like you really encourage me to keep going!

@@carmenchaux67 what issues are you having? I can tell you now or I can send you one of my other video link on how to fix the problem. It all depends on what issues are you having?
Do you have a video that describes how to troubleshoot our irrigation issue? When we turned our sprinklers on this spring, we would get water for a few minutes then the pump would warm up and shut off. We eventually replaced the entire pump. Sprinklers will now water for (at most) 10 minutes then stop. We hope you have a video that can help us troubleshoot issues other than the pump. Thank you! :)
Hi thanks for posting this video! My motor is pulling water, the sprinklers come up and water comes out for about 10 to 20 seconds, then the motor shuts down. What do you think the problem might be?
We know our pump is working (it's brand new) but it will get warm and turn off after only a few minutes. Do you have any videos to show us how to troubleshoot water issues or something other than the pump? Thank you.
Make sure your pump is accepting the correct voltage. Pumps come wired ar 220 volts! but if you power source is 110volts it will run hot or not turn on at all.

That could possibly mean you have a bad motor or a bad capacitor. You would have to do a ohms test do you know the difference. Usually when it trips it’s a bad motor and the pump is no more good sometimes you get lucky if it’s just a capacitors you have to replace
Great video! I have a pump just like the one in the video. I’m having an issue with the water “surging’ and low pressure. I’ve rebuilt the pump and replaced the suction line with a new check valve. I’ve also been replacing the valve diagrams and sprinkler heads. Still getting the water surging. Any ideas?
@@progreengroundservices4038 best way I can describe it would be it’s like your spraying something with your garden hose and someone is turning the spigot off and on. The stream has a “galloping”, surging effect.
@@relsoc Quick question does it only do that when you are priming the pump or is it doing that when you actually have the pump prime and you turn a zone on
@@progreengroundservices4038 it does it when I’m running a zone. You can even hear the pump making a “surging” sound. Maybe what I’ll do is make a video and post it.
@@relsoc what do you need to do is to put a ball valve on the discharge side a ball valve that is equivalent to the size pipe on the discharge side. Then close the ball valve and make sure there is something like a hose bib that is open behind the ball valve the pump may not fully be primed or something is clogging the suction line via if you’re coming from a leak the screen may be getting caught into something or if it’s a Well you may be getting into some well issues
Sir, I didn’t run my system for a few weeks and now my pump just hums when I turn it on, is it shot? I tried priming it but it doesn’t seem to help. A sprinkler guy that came over said it was jammed and advised me to replace it. My water comes from a lake.
If you’re pump is making A loud bumblebee like noise or a loud humming it means the pump has locked up it is no more good you will have to replace it. Does it ship the breaker when you turn it on?
Nice informative video but it didn’t help me diagnose my problem. I turned my stay right pump off for one month and when I went to turn it back on it won’t work anymore. It’s humming when I turned it on but not getting hot in. The relay is putting out to 220 but the pump says it’s getting 110.
There is a switch in the back of the pump where you can change the voltage settings from 1:10 to 220. You have to have equal voltage going to the pump from the relay for example 220 V power and a pump that is wire up 110 will cause a pump to run hot very hot If you look at my other video where I am wiring up a ever built pump you will know how to switch looks but you will need a flat head screwdriver to just switch it over to 220 and then try it again .If it’s still hums then the windings in the pump is gone and it’s time to get a new motor but that’s only after it’s wired up right
@@greenlawnservicesllc7453 great question. It means there’s not enough power getting to it. For example the pump comes wired at 2:20 V. What if the power source gives you 110 V it will shut off. It will also do that the other way around two so the power going to the pump and make sure the pump is wired in sync with the voltage provided.
@@progreengroundservices4038 I should have mentioned it’s worked for years but hurricane Milton made the pump tip over a little. It was raised up out of the lake sitting on a rotten wood stand. Could it be because the pump is sitting on a slight angle? Or is it short cycling ? It’s not tripping the breaker
@@greenlawnservicesllc7453 then the capacitor inside the pump has probably taken a little bit of damage giving you enough voltage for it maybe turn on and then turn off. You can do two things change the capacitor or get another pump.
Thank you sir. I want to make sure people can understand exactly what I'm saying if I talk too fast they may miss something but I will take that into consideration thank you so much
Make sure your pump is wired correctly! And make sure all connections are tight and secured. Even at the pump relay make sure wire connections are good. Also make sure that you do not have a bad breaker supplying power to the pump. If all of those areas are good then it’s time for a new pump
This gentleman is very though when explaining pump problems & home remedies… Good stuff to know!! Thanks 😁👍🏼
Thank you sir! I humbly appreciate it
True story… You explained everything “very well “ to someone like me who has no knowledge of this subject..

TJ, thank you for sharing this awesome video! We loved your professionalism!
thoroughly explained for the DIY person, loved it
Anytime..Thats what I'm here for
Great vid! Keep ‘em coming great info
Thanks you my brother I will do exactly that
don't forget to subscribe!! that also lets me know I'm informing the customers!! LOL
Thanks man saved me a bunch of time on fixing my pump!
That’s what I’m here for!!!
Great information laid out nice and simple so even I could understand everything...........thank you
Anytime my brother any time! Stay tuned for more videos

I’ll go double check my inlet line for air leaks now. Thanks for the tips!
You can do that also if you want to have an insurance tippy vent one check valve from going bad. There’s nothing wrong with that

How is everything going with your journey on becoming a sprinkler contractor?
what could be the issue that my pump is leaking water when i start the pump any susgesstion plz thanks
Is it leaking water from the discharge side or the suction side?
The shut off reset switch is on pipe going in to pump .it trips the breaker when the pump turns on
That could possibly mean you have a bad motor or a bad capacitor. You would have to do a ohms test do you know the difference. Usually when it trips it’s a bad motor and the pump is no more good sometimes you get lucky if it’s just a capacitors you have to replace
