How It Works
Simple process, professional results
Spring Startup (March-May)
We slowly pressurize your system, inspect every zone for damage, adjust spray patterns, program your controller, and test for leaks. You'll know exactly what condition your system is in.
Fall Winterization (Sept-Nov)
We shut off water, connect commercial-grade compressors, blow out each zone systematically, drain backflow preventers, and verify complete water removal.
Annual Plan Renewal
Bundle both services and prepay to save 7% per service while getting priority scheduling for next season.
