Valve box installed “right”

Click on the image to view an enlarged image of the photo.

To see how I installed this valve box, see my YouTube video on “How to replace a sprinkler valve box.”

The image to the left is an example of a small round sprinkler valve box installed correctly. Notice how the top of the valve box is flush with the top of the established sod. Mowing over the box won’t be a problem, and removing the lid will be easy also.

On my “What’s Wrong” page I have an example of a sprinkler valve box that is not installed correctly. Take a look and see what a big difference it makes in a yard when sprinkler parts are installed correctly as opposed to incorrectly.
