If you have an irrigation system on your property in New Jersey, New York, or Connecticut, it's best to let professionals handle the startup! They will inspect your system to ensure everything is working as it should be. If an issue is noticed, they can even make the necessary repairs to prevent further damage. Another benefit of leaving this task to professionals is that they will correctly set up your zones and timers, which makes certain that your system is providing water to the areas that need it and when they need it. Additionally, while they're turning it back on, they will be able to also perform a backflow test at the same time to confirm your water isn't flowing back into your drinking supply, causing contamination. Therefore, leaving this task to the professionals ensures a successful startup!


Professionals will inspect your irrigation system during a startup to ensure it works perfectly.

When you leave irrigation startups to pros, they'll start by thoroughly inspecting your irrigation system. This inspection is crucial for ensuring all the components are functioning properly, and your system can get back online without a hitch. Additionally, if they notice an issue, they'll notify you and perform the necessary repairs. That way, it can start delivering much-needed water to your lawn and landscape for the start of the new growing season!

Some common issues pros may come across during an irrigation startup include broken sprinkler heads, leaks, and faulty valves.

Another reason why you should leave irrigation startups to pros is that they'll correctly set your zones and timers! In order for your lawn and landscape to remain in good health, they need to receive the right amount of water at the right times. Pros will determine how much water each area of your property needs, then set the zones to distribute it and the timers to ensure your system runs at the right times. The setup of zones and timers helps you manage the duration of water cycles and their frequency. When it's done correctly, this makes the system's operation process much simpler while preventing over or underwatering, and professionals will ensure just that as they start it up in the spring!


While turning your irrigation system back on, professionals will perform a backflow test.

It's ideal to have a professional turn on your irrigation system because they'll also perform a backflow test. Professionals will activate the water to the irrigation system while ensuring it flows in the right direction without returning to the water supply. If water flows back into your drinking supply, then you risk contamination. To avoid this, professionals will prepare and test the backflow prevention device. That way, you can have a properly running irrigation system and peace of mind that your drinking supply is safe from contaminants!
