    You might want to re-phrase your question. Are you asking how to find a water main to run a sprinkler system off of, or how to find a line in an existing zone?

    Homer: It's called a "lawnmower". I invented it. Want one?

      It sounds to me like he wants to pull pipe in the ground and wants to know the easiest way to connect it to a water source??????????????????

              Now it makes sense?

              He doesn't want to cut into existing sprinkler system lines when he's trenching??

              Good luck with that one. See if you can locate the irrigation plans. The contractor who installed the system probably has this on file, and/or the property owner. That's gonna be your best way. Even then, there is no guarantee the lines where installed exactly according to the plan.

                i wouldn't worry about the sprinkler lines............

                do like the rest of the cable guys and just bury them to code. the first good rain they will call you back. :laughing: ain't no way you will hit a sprinkler line if just do like the rest.
