The first post office in Caruthers opened in 1891, and the town is named for local farmer W.A. Caruthers.
Sprinkler Controller & Timer Repair for Caruthers homes
When zones do not start, the timer is not always the problem. A dead display, a blown fuse, lost power, a failed terminal or a bad common wire can all look the same. We test the controller, then the wiring, then a valve, so you only replace what is actually broken.
We repair and replace sprinkler timers and controllers, rewire terminals, and set the program for your watering days.
In Caruthers, the controller is what keeps your system inside its watering days and hours, so a timer that loses its program can break the schedule overnight.
Caruthers watering rules and your sprinklers
Caruthers Community Services District runs the community water system, and the State Water Board lists its source as groundwater.
