Winterizing Irrigation Systems: Protecting Your Investment
Winterizing Irrigation Systems is a crucial step to protect your investment and ensure the longevity of your irrigation system. At PJ Pappas, we prioritize the winterization of your irrigation system to shield it from the harsh effects of winter weather. Our comprehensive winterizing services ensure your system remains in optimal condition during the colder months, preventing costly damages and ensuring seamless operation when spring arrives.
The Importance of Winterizing Irrigation Systems
Winterizing Irrigation Systems involves several critical steps to prepare your irrigation system for the winter. Without proper winterization, water left in the system can freeze, expand, and cause pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads to crack or burst. This can lead to expensive repairs and replacements come spring. To avoid these issues, we offer a range of services designed to effectively winterize your system.
Hassle-Free Winterization with the Alleviator Shut Off Valve
For PJ Pappas customers with the innovative “Alleviator Shut Off Valve” installed, our fall winterizing service is automatically scheduled for October. This unique valve allows our technicians to efficiently shut off the water from the outside using the Alleviator Key, eliminating the need for you to be present during the process. By streamlining the winterization process, we ensure that your lawn sprinkler system is protected without causing inconvenience to you.
Comprehensive Winterization Services
During the winterizing irrigation systems process, our experienced technicians take several important steps to prepare your irrigation system for the colder months:
- Water Shut Off: Water will be shut off from the outside via the Alleviator Valve, ensuring that no water remains in the system to freeze and potentially damage components.
- Drainage: Our team will drain all water from the sprinkler lines, valves, and heads to prevent freezing and potential damage. Additionally, we’ll ensure that the backflow preventer is drained to further protect your system.
- Clock Adjustment: Any accessible clocks will be turned off to conserve energy during the winter months, minimizing unnecessary power consumption.
The Alleviator® Irrigation System Shut Off Valve
The Alleviator® revolutionizes winterizing irrigation systems by simplifying the process and ensuring efficient and effective protection against freezing temperatures. By accessing the system’s water supply from outside the customer’s home or building, the Alleviator eliminates scheduling hassles and saves time and money. Moreover, it provides added peace of mind by preventing system freeze-ups in colder climates, ensuring uninterrupted performance throughout the winter season. Easy to install and proven to be reliable and cost-effective, the Alleviator is an invaluable addition to any irrigation system.
If You Do Not Have The Alleviator® Installed
For customers without an “Alleviator Shutoff Valve,” we’ll contact you in advance to coordinate shutting off the water inside your home for the sprinkler system. During your fall closing, we’ll shut off the water to your system via the Alleviator® shut-off valve or your plumbing. Then, we’ll pressurize the system with compressed air, forcing all water out of the sprinkler heads. This Irrigation System Blowout, combined with the Alleviator® valve, guarantees a freeze-proof system for the winter, protecting your investment and ensuring peace of mind.
