When an extended leak occurs, flow has exceeded the leak detect threshold continuously for the extended leak period during non-irrigation hours. When this type of alert occurs, the controller closes a normally open master valve and raises an extended leak alert. The next irrigation will start as scheduled, but the alert will not be cleared automatically.

Possible Causes

• A quick coupler or hose bib is being used
  
  
• A valve is stuck open
  
  
• A mainline fitting is broken
  
  
• A flow connection that is creating a false signal
  
  
  

Possible Fixes

• Repair any valves, quick couplers, or hose bibs.
  
  
• Prevent the unauthorized use of a quick coupler or hose bib.
  
  
• Adjust the Extended Leak Delay setting on WeatherTRAK.net. (WeatherTRAK Central)
