Sprinkler Wire Repair Without Digging

Fix Broken Sprinkler Wires Underground — Without Trenching Your Yard

Broken sprinkler wiring is one of the most common and frustrating irrigation problems. Traditional sprinkler wire repair often requires digging trenches, cutting through landscaping, and spending hours tracing wires underground.

WireSprout offers a smarter solution.

With WireSprout, you can repair broken sprinkler wires, bypass underground wire faults, and expand sprinkler systems without digging, trenching, or running new irrigation wire.

What Causes Sprinkler Wire Failures?

Sprinkler wire problems typically occur over time due to:

  • Underground wire damage from landscaping or yard work

  • Corrosion caused by moisture and soil conditions

  • Rodent or pest damage

  • Aging or brittle irrigation wiring

  • Poor or buried wire splices

When a sprinkler wire breaks underground, locating the exact failure point can be time-consuming, disruptive, and expensive.

Traditional Sprinkler Wire Repair vs. WireSprout

Traditional Repair Methods

  • Digging trenches across lawns and landscaping

  • Pulling new irrigation wire

  • Cutting through hardscapes or planting beds

  • Time-consuming wire tracing and diagnostics

WireSprout Repair Method

  • No digging or trenching

  • No wire tracing

  • No new irrigation wire required

  • Repairs completed in minutes instead of hours

WireSprout bypasses damaged wiring instead of trying to locate it underground.

How WireSprout Repairs Broken Sprinkler Wires

WireSprout is a sprinkler wire multiplier and repair device that allows two sprinkler valves to operate independently on one existing wire.

Here’s how it works:

  • A working field wire is used to control two valves

  • Each valve operates independently, just like a standard wired zone

  • Installation occurs at the irrigation timer and in the valve box

  • The damaged underground wire is bypassed entirely

This restores full sprinkler system functionality without disturbing your yard.

Can WireSprout Be Used to Add Sprinkler Zones?

Yes.

In addition to sprinkler wire repair, WireSprout is commonly used to add sprinkler zones when running new wire is difficult or impractical.

  • Add valves using existing irrigation wiring

  • Expand systems without trenching

  • Upgrade older sprinkler systems efficiently

WireSprout expands wiring capacity, not controller capacity.
Your irrigation timer must have available zone terminals for each valve added.

Is WireSprout Right for Your Sprinkler System?

WireSprout is ideal if:

  • You have a broken or dead sprinkler wire underground

  • Digging or trenching is not practical

  • You want to expand your irrigation system without new wiring

  • You are repairing or upgrading an existing sprinkler system

WireSprout may not be the right solution if:

  • Your irrigation controller has no available zone terminals

  • You are replacing the entire irrigation wiring system

If you’re unsure, our support team can help determine the best option.

Installation Overview

WireSprout installs in two locations:

  • Inside the irrigation controller (timer)

  • Inside the sprinkler valve box

No special tools are required, and controller programming remains unchanged.

Extra Protection (Optional):
For areas with frequent water exposure or potential submersion, install WireSprout inside a standard irrigation grease cap (sold separately). WireSprout is designed to fit most irrigation grease caps.
