Having an automatic sprinkler system will likely save you money on your water
bill. The sprinkler system will have automated features that will apply just the
right amount of water to your lawn. The water will be distributed evenly,
preventing brown spots from emerging. Most controllers come with added features
that allow you to skip watering days if it has received moisture from the
elements.
Caring for your sprinkler system doesn’t have to be time consuming or
expensive. However, not taking the time for regular maintenance can lead to
serious issues. Not only will it waste water, but it can damage your landscape.
The most common sprinkler system problem is pressure. Too much pressure will
ruin your lawn. Not enough pressure and it likely won’t thrive. You may need
to have a professional come look at them if you aren’t sure.
Don't forget to winterize your system. If you do forget, you an be left with
broken pipes or broken sprinkler heads. Either can cost you money to repair or
replace. For permanent sprinkler systems, the winterization process is simple.
Yet it is recommended to have it completed by a professional. Generally it can
be done for $50 to $100. The first step is to shut off the water supply to the
sprinkler system. It is important to protect the main shut off valve to the
water supply from freezing. It is recommended to wrap it in insulation.
Remember, if you care for your sprinkler system, you are in effect caring for
your lawn.
