Default Irrigation system question

The valve seats in the control valve may dry out and dribble when
turned
on as well some oxidation may occur. As well if the controller is
directly
controlling a pump. I wouldn't recommend it.

Control valves don't last forever so replace if neccessary not working
or low volume.

after each use? Will it do any harm?
