From the new guy
Installing a new sprinkler controller system. Please help me wire it!
by Greg Gabbar (Aug 18th 2017, 11:59pm)
I'm the new tech writer at Sprinkler Warehouse and have been asked to act as a moderator for this forum.
From what I've read so far this forum is already running at a fairly high level. It stays pretty well into the friendly and professional attitude that we hope to maintain. It doesn't look like I'll have all that much to do.
I want to thank everyone for all of their contributions and efforts. There is an amazing amount of info here.
Two things I would like to mention.
First, I am writing a number of articles for our BLOG . I do NOT consider myself an expert on anything. Please let me know if you see a mistake or have something I should add. Feel free to suggest new subjects.
Second, if you have any changes you would like made to this forum please let me know. I'm open to all ideas. And before you ask, we just made external links operable if placed by a registered member.
Finally, for those who might wonder, I am a licensed irrigator in the state of Texas. Didn't want you to think they just grabbed the first person with nothing to do for this forum.
Glad you are here. Let me know if I can help.
