Winterizing 2010

squirrel.jpgNow that Autumn has officially begun and cool weather is just around the corner it is time to prepare for the winter by closing down the lawn sprinkler system and removing all the water in the lines.

Winterizing your sprinkler system is as important as putting antifreeze in your car. If you do not have this service completed in a timely manner then the consequences can be disastrous. When water freezes it expands and this can lead to frozen pipes that will split and crack. Repairing or replacing broken equipment is expensive and is un-necessary if you have your system winterized this October and November. My recommendation is to have your system taken care of before Thanksgiving

Sprinkler System Redux

Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Carlos.jpgAs summer begins to move into fall the dry weather continues and the Rain Rich Team is still busy fixing up and replacing sprinkler systems installed by others. Frustrated owners continue to call us to see what we can do to make their sprinkler systems work. It never fails that when we get a dry hot summer with very little or no rain that all the inadequacies of a poor design & installation become very apparent as dry lawn and shrubs. There are several mistakes made by inexperienced or handyman sprinkler companies and these include:

1. The sprinkler system is designed without knowing the working water pressure and volume.

2. Too many sprinkler heads on each zone.

3. Poor sprinkler head spacing. Usually too far apart.



Service Contracts

It is a great time with the start of anew school year, the football season, baseball playoffs, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. It is also the end of summer, heat, humidity, and time to begin to think about winterizing your sprinkler system.

If you haven't already, I ask that you either renew your service agreement or purchase one for the upcoming year. Owning a service agreement is a convenient way to pre-pay your winterizing and summarizing appointments. You receive free service calls (a $70 value) and 10% off all repairs. Rain Rich takes care of winterizing your sprinkler system at the correct time and starting up your sprinklers in the spring..
