What happens here
Assemble the main PVC pipes that will form the manifold and house the control valves near the house foundation. This involves cutting PVC pipes to size, applying PVC primer to clean the pipe ends and fittings, and then using PVC cement to securely bond them together. Install an irrigation valve box in the ground around the assembled valves to protect them.
Goal: Build the main water control manifold and protect the valves.
