Okay, each house has a shutoff valve for the water which leads to the outside taps.
Can this be turned off and on regularly? Instead of turning on and off the water taps on the outside of the house. We do turn it off during the winter months.
If the water is left on from the outside taps (Sprinkler and what not), then shut off from the basement (control valve), will this cause any damage? Or is it just like turning off the water at a different source.
Thanks.
The reason why I ask, is that it's much quicker than going outside first thing in the morning turning on the sprinklers, then turning them off before I go to work.
Call it laziness, call it brilliance...
it's all good.
