Winterization

The safest and easiest way to winterize your sprinkler system is to hire our professionals to do it for you so that you can rest assured the pipes are completely cleared of all water. We will purge your system of water using compressed air and deactivate your controller.

Your irrigation system is essential, providing the necessary water to keep your grass and plants hydrated throughout the growing season. Because of this, you’ll want to ensure it stays in working order year after year. To do this, you need to winterize it! Winterizing your irrigation system involves shutting it down and blowing out the lines to remove any remaining water in preparation for the winter season. Skipping this vital task could risk your system becoming damaged due to freezing temperatures, leading to costly repairs come spring. The best time to winterize your irrigation system is before the first frost.

The importance of winterizing your irrigation system is evident in the risks you’d take if you skipped it. When you don’t properly prepare it for the winter, the remaining water in the pipes can freeze over, which can cause them to crack and break or even burst. Similarly, any water trapped in the sprinkler heads could expand due to freezing and damage them. As a result, you would have to deal with costly repairs in the spring and leave your grass and plants without hydration until they’re up and running again. Rather than risking your irrigation system suffering extensive damage and leading to problems come spring, hire our professionals to handle the job for you!

Our Winterization service is a three-step process.

  1. Purge the system of water using compressed air.
  2. De-activate irrigation controller.
  3. Backflow preventer will be removed and left with homeowner.
