Signs it’s Time for a Sprinkler System Repair

As the higher temps roll in, your sprinkler system is most likely up and running more often. To avoid underwatered, flooded, or patchy grass, it is important to take care of your sprinkler system. As you continue to water your lawn this summer, we recommend checking for these warning signs indicating that your system is ready for repair. 

Irregular Water Flow

Sputtering or dribbling sprinkler heads lead to the sprinklers spraying off-target. This is partially due to clogged or cracked sprinkler heads. Additionally, it is possible that the pop-up sprinkler heads may have shifted out of position. 

Loss of Water Pressure 

Typically accompanied by irregular water flow, loss of pressure may occur. When pressure is too low, adequate amounts of water are not delivered across your yard. This is a telltale sign of a malfunction in your irrigation pipes, control valves, regulators, and overall sprinkler system. 

Inconsistent Watering

Pools of water and flooded areas are signs that your system is unevenly distributing water. On the contrary, take note of dry patches of grass. These are signs that a sprinkler head or valve is in need of adjustments and repairs. 

High Water Bill

An abnormally high water bill is oftentimes a signal of sprinkler system malfunction. It is possible that you’re experiencing a leak in your system, forcing your system to use more water than intended. This is figuratively and literally draining money out of your wallet.
