"Iâ  ve been using this company for more then 10years and this year it will come to a end. They installed a 6 zone sprinkler system at my property and used the Hunter heads that lasted more then 5 years. The past 3 years those heads have reached their life span so I called this company to come out and check what needs replacement and take care of it. They came and changed nearly all the heads and upsold me on a WiFi phone management wireless control hub that I thought was pretty cool. I paid for the work to be done but the heads would keep failing shortly after install. every-time I would call them to come back and check what they replaced they would try to charge me again for the some heads that didnâ  t work for 1 complete season. I was so fed up that I decided to look at what head they were using because the initial install lasted more than 5 years. I found out that instead of replacing the heads with hunter they used on original install, they used some cheap toro heads that keep failing. I lost so much money with these incompetent workers that they hired and nobody takes responsibility when I call to complain. I finally paid them what I owed them for the cheap toro heads that were replaced a year ago that I was charged again for. I def wonâ  t be using their services anymore for opening and closings sprinklers. Just want to point out this company doesnâ  t care about customer loyalty and only care about making a fast buck. They will no longer be servicing and closing my sprinklers annually."

Sprinkler system for lawn and garden winterizes or activates FAQs

Winterize your sprinkler system before the first deep freeze in your area, typically from late September to early October. This ensures no water remains in the pipes to freeze and cause damage, preventing costly repairs and preserving your system's integrity.

You should open your sprinkler system in spring only after the last hard freeze has ended. Begin by testing the system once temperatures remain robustly above 32°F and the risk of frost has completely dissipated. This method protects your system from pressure shocks and minimizes repair risks, ensuring optimal performance for the new season.

The cost to run an irrigation system depends on factors such as water usage, local water rates, and the efficiency of your system. On average, homeowners may spend between $10 and $50 per month on irrigation water. To minimize costs, consider installing a water-efficient system and scheduling watering during cooler times of the day to reduce evaporation. Regular maintenance also helps ensure your system operates efficiently.

If you live in a warm climate where freezing temperatures are rare, you do not need to winterize your sprinkler system. In regions where temperatures consistently remain above freezing, water will not remain in the pipes long enough to cause freeze damage. However, it's still important to perform regular maintenance to keep your system running efficiently. Reviewing local weather forecasts and consulting a professional ensures that your system operates effectively without unnecessary maintenance.
