Spring is finally in full swing! Flowers are blooming and the grass is growing. Things are finally looking green again which means it’s time for your irrigation system’s spring startup. Your irrigation system has been shut down all winter but it’s time to get that grass growing again! So hire a professional irrigation technician to properly start up your system and get things going. As the trusted name in irrigation systems for St Paul and the surrounding areas, we’d like to tell you more about this process and the reasons it should be performed by irrigation specialists like those at Classic Lawnscape.
Why Call the Professionals
Irrigation system professionals like ours know how to properly start up your system in order to avoid any damages. After a long winter, your irrigation system can be broken just by turning it on. Water hammer is when a rush of water flows into an empty pipe caused by a surge of air pressure. The result is burst fittings, producing geyser-like water eruptions on your lawn and it can even cause your system to fail.
What’s Involved
A spring startup from Classic Lawnscape will turn your irrigation systems back on and assess them for any issues. During this process, our certified irrigation technician will look for any areas that are in need of immediate attention or repairs including parts of your system that may become problematic in the near future. Next, we’ll point out any areas of your system that could benefit from upgrading to smart irrigation technology in order to reduce the amount of water your system uses.
We will turn on the main water source and get it charged with water and at the same time perform any adjustments to the system’s head heights or spray patterns to allow for optimal plant growth throughout the season. We perform a variety of services as part of our spring startup including:
- Checking each sprinkler head for proper operation
- Testing water pressure
- Adjusting and clean sprinkler heads
- Installing batteries
- Adjusting and set controller
- Charging the system with water
- And more
