Frequently Asked Questions


Q: What are the parts of a sprinkler valve?

A: Your sprinkler valve consists of several main parts, including the solenoid, diaphragm and wire connectors. The solenoid is an electrical cylinder that receives signals from the controller and moves the diaphragm in response. This diaphragm plugs the valve to seal it shut and opens it up to allow the water to flow. Wire connectors join the system to the electrical signal and can offer surge resistance and prevent corrosion.


Q: What does the solenoid on a sprinkler valve do?

A: The solenoid controls the flow of water. It’s an electrical component that uses a wire coil to create an electromagnet that then controls the movement of the diaphragm. It’s an essential piece of a functioning sprinkler system and should be periodically replaced to ensure proper operation.


Q: What’s a bleed screw on a sprinkler valve?

A: The bleed screw is a small screw on your sprinkler valve that’s used to manually relieve water pressure from the diaphragm and assist with flow. But be careful: You don’t want to remove the screw entirely because this can cause water to seep out of the valve.
