De-winterize for Spring
Spring has sprung, the weather is getting warmer, the grass is getting greener, and plants are beginning to bloom – outdoor life is back and making a grand entrance. Let’s welcome spring in and prep for the season.
Wintertime in the Midwest calls for proper winterization of your irrigation system. Springtime calls for the reverse. You cleared out the water for winter, now let’s add it back for spring.
After completing these de-winterization steps, you’ll be set for all outdoor play and relaxation.
- Inspect all pipes and sprinklers for blockage, cracks, and damage.
- Bring your irrigation system online one zone at a time by slowly filling the pipes with water. Filling the pipes too quickly may cause damage.
- Repeat for any additional zones.
- Watch how your system is performing. Take note of anything out of the ordinary – persistent wet spots or low water pressure. These may be the effects of pipe leakage.
- Check your control box’s power source. Make sure it is in good working condition.
- Keep a watchful eye on your water bill. Any unexpected jumps can be the result of leaks causing unnecessary water waste.
