We repair Orbit and B-hyve in Madera
ACRE repairs Orbit sprinkler systems and B-hyve controllers in Madera: Orbit brass, inline and anti-siphon valves, gear-drive sprinklers such as the H2O-6, Orbit timers and B-hyve smart controllers.
Everything is repaired from our Fresno location; see our national page on Orbit and B-hyve repair for the full list of Orbit and B-hyve problems we fix.
Orbit zone with low pressure or a leak in Madera
If an Orbit zone sprays weakly or the ground stays wet, the problem may be a line break rather than the head. We run the zone, trace the pressure loss and fix the pipe or fitting.
A zone with low pressure or ground that stays soggy is worth tracing before it wastes more water, and Madera’s own system leans on wells.
Orbit gear-drive sprinkler not rotating in Madera
An Orbit gear-drive such as the H2O-6 that sticks, stops turning or will not come on often has a dirty or worn gear drive, or low pressure at the zone. We repair or replace the head and match the nozzle to the yard.
Under Madera’s Stage B rules, leaks and sprinkler adjustments must be fixed within 5 days of a citation, so a broken head should not wait.
B-hyve controller skipping zones or off the app in Madera
A B-hyve controller that drops zones or will not follow its schedule can be a power, wiring or valve problem, not only a software one. We test the zone outputs and the valves, repair or replace the controller, and set the program.
Madera water customers water three days a week by address and never on Mondays, so a controller that loses its program can put a yard outside the rules.
About Madera
Madera shares the Fresno area’s semi-arid San Joaquin Valley climate, with long, hot, dry summers, mild winters and about 11 inches of rain a year, so sprinklers carry most of the watering load.
Madera is the county seat of Madera County, and its name is Spanish for “lumber.”
Madera’s average annual precipitation is about 10.8 inches, concentrated between November and March, according to Wikipedia’s NOAA-based climate section.
Madera had 66,224 residents at the 2020 census and sits at about 272 feet above sea level. Incorporated on March 27, 1907.
Madera watering rules and your Orbit and B-hyve system
Madera city water customers follow the City of Madera’s Stage B rules. The City’s water system includes 20 active wells and about 200 miles of waterlines, per Wikipedia.
Under the City’s Stage B rules, even-numbered addresses water Wednesday, Friday and Sunday and odd-numbered addresses Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. No outside water use on Mondays or between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. The City’s rules also say leaks and sprinkler adjustments must be fixed within 5 days of a citation.
After a Orbit and B-hyve repair we test each zone and can set the controller to match. See the full Madera watering schedule.
