Problems With the Irrigation System?

No Water?

Reset the GFI at the pump.  Press the “reset” button on the right side below the open plug. 

This will reset the electricity. Sometimes after the rain the GFI switch turns off.

Gushing Water?

Turn off water at pump house box.  By turning “light switch” from “on” to “off”, you turn off the pump that drives the well.  This will shut off all water flow to all of the community plots.

With any garden emergency like this, please report it ASAP by calling or texting Rebecca Lear,  Garden Coordinator (757) 289-2596 or Adrienne, Advisory Group member (757) 353-1499.

Email garden@nimmochurch.com and report it to Rebecca Lear,  Garden Coordinator (757) 289-2596. If you can take pictures and note the day/time when reporting, it will be very helpful. Thank you.
