Irrigation Manifold Assembly

At the same time that Tony and his crew were installing the pump and motor, my husband was busy assembling the irrigation manifold.

The Y-strainer and a backflow preventer come next in the assembly.
The third section consists of the following two pictures. The disc filter and the continuous air vent:
With the manifold assembled, we are ready for the water!
