How Our Sprinkler Winterization Works
- Shut Off & Isolate. We turn off your irrigation water and isolate the backflow/preventer.
- Connect Air. We attach a compressor to the system and regulate pressure appropriate for sprinkler components.
- Blow Out Zones. We cycle each zone until mist clears and heads run dry, including drip lines.
- Drain & Set Controller. We drain the backflow, leave valves partially open, and set your controller for winter with notes.
Note: Winterization removes water from lines and components ahead of freezing weather. It’s not a full spring tune‑up; minor issues can still surface at startup. We’re happy to address those during spring start‑up service.

Answered and Questions
Our irrigation repair techs are professionals of their craft and provide exceptional customer service.
We’re committed to providing fast, affordable, reliable, worry free irrigation services in Rochester, Oakland, Troy, Shelby Township and the neighboring communities.
Blowing out your sprinkler requires mechanical and technological knowledge dealing with air volume, air pressure, and figuring out the ratio between the two. You can quickly ruin your lawn sprinkler by miscalculating the air volume or using the wrong size air compressor.
You also need to practice safety precautions, such as wearing safety glasses and not standing over the sprinkler heads when blowing out the system.
For these reasons, now is the time to winterize your irrigation systems – before November’s colder weather arrives. October is an ideal month for winterizing irrigation systems, since most parts of the country don’t have a hard freeze until later in the year.

Comprehensive System Blowout
Our winterizing process begins with a thorough system blowout. We use high-pressure air to remove all water from your sprinkler lines, valves, and heads. This essential step prevents water from freezing inside the pipes, which can lead to cracks, burst pipes, and expensive repairs. This service is also known as irrigation winterizing, sprinkler blowout, and sprinkler shut down.
Winter Preparation and Inspections
In addition to the blowout, we perform a detailed inspection of your entire irrigation system to identify any potential issues that could worsen during the winter. We ensure all components are properly shut down and protected, so your system is ready to be reactivated in the spring without any surprises. This thorough winterization process gives you peace of mind throughout the cold season.
