Spring Openings

Spring is the time when your lawn comes back to life - and your irrigation system should do too! Did you know that opening your system right away can extend its life by years? It's true! A professional spring opening ensures that everything is working perfectly after the long winter months, preventing damage and inefficiency right from the start.

Why You Need a Spring Opening

System Inspection

A thorough inspection of the entire lawn irrigation system is conducted to check for any damages, leaks, or clogs that might have occurred during the winter.

Mainline Valve Check

The mainline valve is the point of entry for water in the system and it controls the flow of the water to all the zones of your lawn. Raincheck Irrigation thoroughly checks it and allows water to come through.

Seamless Spring Start-Ups

Spring openings in lawn irrigation systems mark the beginning of the watering season and are crucial for ensuring optimal performance after winter dormancy. This process involves systematically inspecting and activating each component of the irrigation system that was shut down or winterized during the colder months. Technicians typically start by pressurizing the system, checking for leaks, and verifying the functionality of valves and controllers. They assess each sprinkler head for proper alignment, coverage, and functionality, adjusting or replacing as necessary. Additionally, they calibrate irrigation schedules and settings to accommodate seasonal weather changes, ensuring efficient water distribution while promoting healthy plant growth. Spring openings also include testing rain sensors and updating system software to incorporate any advancements or adjustments needed for improved performance. This proactive maintenance not only prepares the system for peak efficiency but also helps prevent costly repairs by identifying potential issues early in the season.
