Maintenance Package Visits, what’s included:

 HERE’S WHAT WE DO

Spring Start up

  • Introduce water into your system at a controlled rate to avoid water hammer damage.

  • Inspect all operations of your automatic controller.

  • Program zone times for efficient use of water.

  • Replace dead back-up batteries with fresh batteries (if required) so that a power failure won’t wipe out your programming.

  • Inspect your zone control valves for winter damage and leaks.

  • Inspect all of your sprinkler heads, checking for leaks, plugged nozzles and slow rotation.

  • We check for frost heave that would cause a lawn mower to destroy the head.

  • Inspect the operation of your rain sensor to ensure your system will not water unnecessarily.

  • Perform minor repairs if required. If our technician determines that service or repairs will exceed $500.00, or if renovations are recommended but not required, you will be contacted to discuss the work before we would proceed.

  • Provide you with a detailed checklist of all work performed.

Scheduled Check-ups

  • Perform a complete inspection of all system components as per Spring Tune-up. (Steps 2-9)

  • Inspect your lawn and garden areas for dry spots and make the necessary adjustments.

  • Reprogram your controller for the current seasonal conditions based on historical weather data.

Winterization

  • Use a high capacity air compressor so that we have the volume and pressure required to blow the water out of farthest sprinkler.

  • Take care to prevent any sudden burst of air that may cause your fittings or sprinklers to separate.

  • Ensure that the air speed is great enough to blow out the water, but not enough to cause thermal damage to your pipes.

  • Note any deficiencies so that they can be repaired in the spring.
