Why you need to winterize your sprinklers and our difference
Irrigation systems have to be winterized to avoid damage caused
by freezing temperatures. Water expands when it freezes. This
expansion creates cracks in the pipes, fittings, and sprinkler
housing. By taking the necessary steps for protecting your
irrigation system now, you will avoid costly repairs in the
springtime.
Most company's use compressors that can charge up to 120PSI or
more. Be warned that anything over 80PSI can damage the components
of the irrigation system. The Sprinkler manufactures recommend a
compressor being about to deliver 60PSI at a minimum 15 CFM. CFM is
what actually displaces the water.
- We winterize with a compressor that delivers 60PSI.
- We blow out each zone twice with two short cycles as
opposed to blowing out each zone once with a long cycle.
- We open all the drains and leave them set at a 45 degree angle which helps prevent
condensation that can build up and crack the inside ball valve, thus cracking it.
- We guarantee that in the springtime your system will start and operate without any headaches
