This video explains the ABSOLUTE MUST DO TIP when installing a Hunter rain freeze sensor on a Hunter X2 Sprinkler Controller. ✅ SUBSCRIBE HERE : https://www.youtube.com/c/americanirrigator?sub_confirmation=1 Who knew that you had to take out the metal jumper plate before you wired in the rain freeze sensor in order for it to actually work? Believe it or not I was one of those guys when I first got started installing irrigation systems. I had to learn the hard way, on a lot of things, and wiring up a sensor, the right way, was one of them. None of my sensors were working properly and I didn't know why until someone pointed it out that I didn't take the jumper out before I wired it in. So that leads me to the number one tip when installing a rain freeze sensor - Make sure you take out the jumper before you wire the sensor in. The jumper keeps the common connected so the controller will run, if you don't take it out, the sensor will never trip the controller and stop it from running. So your sensor will not work. When you take the jumper out and wire in the sensor, the common now runs though the sensor. When the sensor trips from rain or freezing weather, it breaks the common and stops the controller from running. This is how to properly install a rain freeze sensor. ?

In this video I am using an Insulated Backflow Cover from Redford Supply to Winterize a Backflow Preventer Valve on a Sprinkler System we maintain in Texas.

Wether you are going to turn off and blow out your entire irrigation system or leave it on to continue to water during the winter, insulating the backflow preventer with an insulated cover is a must. This can help you avoid costly repairs like we had here. This particular backflow device on this sprinkler system froze and broke last year, although it is under an insulated enclosure. This enclosure was not enough to keep it from freezing and breaking. So this year we are using a nice backflow cover to give it the extra insulation we need to keep the backflow preventer valve from freezing. This backflow cover from Redford Supply has a velcro strip on the bottom which I like, so I can completely seal off the entire backflow preventer keeping cold air from getting in and around it. They have a lot of sizes to choose from and custom fit covers that have velcro on the sides and bottom. Here is a link where you can look at all the different sizes and color options they have. ?
