Old Richdel valve stuck open?
Hi all, I believe this is an very old Richdel valve, it can be powered and I can hear the solenoid humming, but it is stuck in the open position and the sprinkler won't shut off.
-
Is there an easy way to flush the inner without taking it apart?
-
Is the diaphragm even available at this point?
-
Are there drop in replacement that I can retrofit into it without having to replace the whole valve?
Thanks in advance.
