With freezing temperatures ahead, it may be time to winterize your sprinkler system. Although it typically takes several days of below freezing temps, to be on the safe side, there are only a few steps needed to drain your system and help prevent a costly repair in the Spring. To winterize your sprinkler system, first turn off the main shut off to your PVB. Next, open the test port 1 to release the water. Open the second test port to continue to drain the system. Make sure to wrap your pipes and protect your PVB. Here is a link to a short video that shows each of these steps. If you are still unsure, give us a call and we can winterize your system for a small amount of money compared to a potential costly repair.
