My Dixmore Weep Mizer DX1000 is not working correctly. I tested the Weep Mizer in my other wash Wylam and it would not turn on the solenoid. So I decided to wire a normally closed solenoid to the heater thermostat. This plan involved purchasing a Rain Bird (CP-075) irrigation solenoid, of course this solenoid runs off 24 volts. So I needed a 24 volt transformer to convert the 120 volts to 24 volts. I then used an extension cable to wire the system. Then magic everything works.
When I was trying to rewire the thermostat I ended up having to rewire the thermostat. I always love side projects.
