How Our Sprinkler Winterization Works

  1. Shut Off & Isolate. We turn off your irrigation water and isolate the backflow/preventer.
  2. Connect Air. We attach a compressor and regulate pressure appropriate for sprinkler components.
  3. Blow Out Zones. We cycle each zone until mist clears and heads run dry, including drip lines.
  4. Drain & Set Controller. We drain the backflow, leave valves partially open, and set your controller for winter with notes.

Note: Winterization removes water ahead of freezing weather. It’s not a full spring tune‑up; minor issues can still surface at startup. Ask about our spring start‑up service for full inspection and adjustments.

Winterization FAQs

“`
When should I schedule my sprinkler blowout in Bloomfield Hills?
Most homeowners book between late September and early November, before sustained overnight freezing. Heavily shaded lots and lake‑adjacent areas can freeze earlier.
How long does a visit take?
Typical homes (6–8 zones) take ~20–30 minutes once connected. Larger properties or pump‑fed systems may take longer.
Do I need to be home?
Not required if we have access to the backflow/connection point and controller. Please unlock gates, keep pets inside, and make valve boxes accessible.
Is compressed air safe for my irrigation system?
Yes. We use a regulated compressor and short bursts within safe ranges for residential components. We run each zone until only fine mist/air is present—this indicates the line is clear.
Do you include drip zones and the backflow?
Yes. Drip/micro zones are included, and we drain/isolate the backflow assembly for winter.
