Finca Verde

Water rights are distributed by weekly timeslots

Refer to the map when carrying out the watering.

A switch that is open has the lever point parallel along the length of the pipe.

A switch that is closed has the lever point perpendicular to the length of the pipe.

1. At 10:00 Fill the domestic tank
   1. Open the switch for the domestic tank inlet
   2. Change the switch “Frascito” to point at the East Side
   3. When main tank overflows close the switch for domestic tank inlet
2. At 11:00 Change the switch “Frascito” to point at South Side
3. Walk up to the “L'Arquetta” and ensure there is water flowing from the pipe through the filter
4. Walk further up toward “Upper 1” and ensure there is stone correctly positioned under the pipe join to prevent leakage
5. Walk down to “Motrileneo” and ensure it is open
6. Walk along terraces and check that individual water exits are not blocked
7. Walk along terraces and check that the water is not causing any damage
8. Walk to terminus points along each terrace and clear them of debris by opening them and waiting until water runs clear

1. Start irrigation at the time indicated by the explanatory start of irrigation paragraph by opening all irrigation outlets:
   1. Under the sink
   2. Black in the tunnel
   3. Red in the tunnel
   4. Make sure any downflow levers are also open for fully open watering
2. At 19:00 open the inlet valve into the “Alberca”
3. Walk up to the “L'Arquetta” and ensure there is water flowing from the pipe through the filter
4. Walk further up toward “Upper 1” and ensure there is stone correctly positioned under the pipe join to prevent leakage
5. Walk along terraces and check that individual water exits are not blocked
6. Walk along terraces and check that the water is not causing any damage
7. Walk to terminus points along each terrace and clear them of debris by opening them and waiting until water runs clear
8. Monitor the change of water level in the water deposit
9. Stop irrigation at such a time so that by the time the water stops the water deposit is exactly full without overflow
10. Clean the filters

Irrigation starting time is timed to avoid watering during hot weather as much as possible, but is timed to start watering as early as possible in the winter, to also avoid overflow of the water deposit. As such, before 27th of March irrigation should be started 90 minutes before local sunset. After 27th of March and until 9th of September irrigation should be started at 19:00, when the filling of the water deposit starts. After 9th of September watering should once again happen 90 minutes before local sunset.

Before cleaning a filter ensure the relevant irrigation lever is closed, so that no water is flowing through the pipe. Use the wrench to unscrew the filter, and remove the whole filter assembly from the pipe. Wash the filter with fresh water. If that is insufficient attempt to use a brush to clean debris out. If that is insufficient try soaking the filter in a mild vinegar bath, and once again use a brush to remove debris. Screw the filter back into place, taking care to screw the assembly tight without over-tightening it.
