It is an objective of the present invention to provide a system for collecting runoff from lawn and garden sprinkler systems that include in ground drainage piping. It is a further objective to provide a system that is integrated with a water supply system insure that sufficient water is available for redistribution to lawns and gardens.It is a still further objective of the invention to provide a conservation system that measures relative moisture at delivery sites and only provides watering when the moisture content of the soil reaches a predefined level. It is another objective to provide a system that senses a pressure drop in an irrigation line and closes off water flow to that line. Finally, it is an objective of the present invention to provide a system for collecting runoff from lawn and garden sprinkler systems that can be economically manufactured, installed and operated and that is durable and simple to use.
While some of the objectives of the present invention are disclosed in the prior art, none of the inventions found include all of the requirements identified.
