Help with sprinkler system 'seasonal startup'
Bought a house about 6 months ago and I'm trying to turn on the sprinklers for the first time. Here is a picture of the system outside. Can anyone tell me what I might have to do to get it working? I've tried pulling the knobs every which way while running a test in zones, nothing worked. My finance thought the previous owner said we just had to cap the system... but the only thing we saw was the mushroom shaped 'cover' on the top that we put on.
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!

It looks like the lower part of the copper line right below the valve is Tee'd and goes into the house? Is the valve on in your utility room to supply water to the outside? For example, I have a water valve in the utility room near my water meter that turns on all the outdoor water valves.
