Today I’m glad I’m not a homeowner. We just discovered that whenever the sprinkler systems go, there’s a puddle of water on my dining room floor.

Hey I don’t pick the landscaping nor maintain it. The hoa landscapers do.wtf you watering a cactus garden?
i just realized you were talking about yard sprinklers, not in house fire sprinklers.Today I’m glad I’m not a homeowner. We just discovered that whenever the sprinkler systems go, there’s a puddle of water on my dining room floor.
Yeah, outside sprinklers cause a puddle in the middle of the floor. Walls are dry.i just realized you were talking about yard sprinklers, not in house fire sprinklers.
I was like... what, of course there is, thats the whole point.
It’s coming through the foundation. Ceiling is also dry.someone did some creative plumbing and ran one of your spigot lines through the ceiling to get to wherever the sprinkler valve box is.
Exactly why I’m glad it’s not my house.oh, thats... bad
i forgot most folks dont have basements.
Well that sounds like an expensive thing to figure out.It’s coming through the foundation. Ceiling is also dry.
not like she has to worry about a freeze lineWell that sounds like an expensive thing to figure out.
They'll have to cut the slab up and dig.
If it were me, I'd just trench a new line to the sprinkler system, and abandon the old one. That's what I did for my back yard at the current house. Wasn't actually that expensive, just about a hundo to rent a trencher, then a few days of yard diggin'.
@kiwi is North of Phoenix, so IIRC, the freeze line is the same as it is where I live, around 18".not like she has to worry about a freeze line

The only time I've seen it done here is when they're installing piers to stabilize a subsiding foundation.Figured they could dig under the slab.
They can here, but the ground here is sand & clay and wet
no idea if that would work in the desert
pumpable through a much smaller orifice.
I wouldn't have figured your o-ring was a particularly small orifice anymore.
