Irrigation Controller Installation - April 2, 2016

Used a pocket hold jog to connect some 2x4s

Completed mount

Installed mount


Installed controller. I pulled power from a nearby switch

Now for routing the irrigation wire

Pulled off some interior wall panels (cardboard) installed by previous homeowner. These crack me up! They are even painted. I am surprised how well the insulate. That dead air space works decently well in the winter when I am running the heater.
