Default Irrigation control

Hi All,

I am in a perdicament and cant find any help. My problem is that I need to
find a "relay timer" switch that will turn a chemical inj pump on and keep
it on for 20 secs. My problem is that im trying to inj chemical into my
mist house water. The inj pump is tied into the main pump. The main pump
is run by a automatic timer. So when the water pump comes on the chemical
inj pump comes on. Very similar to a chlorinator sys on a well. The
problem is the water pump only stays on for 5 secs and that isnt enough
time for my chemical inj pump to start pumping. My inj pump needs 10secs
before it starts pulsing. Im using a metronics 6 gpd pump. Very similar to
pulsafeeder type.

I need the chemical because down here in florida the hard water is way hard
and leaves rust and calcium staining on the leaves thus causing most plants
to suffocate and eventually die. Not to mention the algae and bacteria.

Please Help. theres got to be a way!
