## Why Winterization is Essential

### Freeze Damage Prevention

Water left in pipes expands when frozen, cracking pipes, fittings, and sprinkler heads.

### Backflow Preventer Protection

These expensive components are especially vulnerable to freeze damage.

### Cost Savings

Winterization costs a fraction of what you'd pay to repair freeze damage.

### Peace of Mind

Know your system is protected all winter and ready for spring.

## Our Winterization Process

We use commercial-grade air compressors to thoroughly remove all water from your irrigation system:

Shut off water supply to the irrigation system

Open manual drain valves at low points

Connect commercial-grade air compressor

Blow out each zone until no water visible

Repeat for all zones (typically 2-3 passes)

Disconnect and drain backflow preventer

Shut down and protect controller

Schedule spring startup appointment
