Frequently Asked Questions

When should I schedule my winter shut-down?

It’s best to schedule your winter shut-down before the first hard frost, typically in late fall. Booking early fall ensures your system is protected in time.

What happens if I don’t winterize my system?

If your system isn’t properly winterized, water left in the pipes can freeze, expand, and cause pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads to crack, leading to costly repairs in spring.

Can I winterize my irrigation system myself?

While it’s possible, proper winterization requires specialized equipment, such as a commercial-grade air compressor, to ensure all water is fully blown out. A professional service minimizes the risk of damage.

What kind of access does the technician need to complete the winterization?

The Main Water Shut-Off Valve, which is usually located in the front yard, basement, crawl space, or utility room.
The Irrigation Controller, typically found in the garage, basement, or an outdoor weatherproof box, should be accessible.
Ensure clear access to all zones and outdoor valves for proper service.
