Why is Winterization Essential for Your Irrigation System?

Failure to properly winterize your system can lead to:

  • Cracked Pipes and Fittings: Water expands when it freezes, causing damage to pipes and fittings that can be costly to repair.
  • Damage to Sprinkler Heads and Valves: Ice formation can also damage sprinkler heads and valves, leading to malfunctioning in the spring.
  • Increased Risk of Backflow: Water left in the system can freeze and cause backflow issues, potentially contaminating your potable water supply.
