Now 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.
