Let us help with Winterization

It is crucial to call a certified technician to check up on your irrigation system three times a year: once in the spring, once midway through the summer, and once in the fall. Here in the Grand Rapids area, we have the blessing—and the curse—of four distinct seasons. Once you feel that first chill in the air, you should schedule an appointment with our team of technicians so we can take a look at your sprinkler system and do any repairs that might be required.

It might seem counterproductive to check up on your lawn sprinkler system when you know you won’t be using it for many months, but fall sprinkler winterization is necessary as a preventative measure. While your irrigation system is lying dormant in the long Michigan winter, there is still the potential for serious, costly damage. Pipes can freeze and burst when you least expect it.

Fall winterization is especially helpful because it covers all the bases. We offer a very wide range of winterization services, including the following:

1. Water drainage
2. Examination of pipes and other components in the system
3. Checking for necessary repairs
4. “Blowing out” pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads with an air compressor
5. Activating your sprinkler system’s winter setting

Winterization is typically done in early fall (September, October, or November) in order to ensure that the procedures are done before temperatures drop below freezing. A winterized irrigation system brings immense peace of mind to homeowners. You’ll be able to rest easily knowing your system will be working properly in the spring when you activate it again.
