Irrigation Satellite Replacement

The replacement of the irrigation satellite control boxes is underway.  First, all wires must be labeled and disconnected at each satellite location.  Once this tedious task is complete, we remove the old satellite and concrete footing.  Next, the new satellite is installed.  Last, all the wires must be reconnected in the proper location.  There are a total of 20 satellites that will be replaced.

New communication wire is also being pulled underground to all of the satellites.  This will allow the irrigation to operate nightly from a computer software program.

Here are a few photos of the process...
