Most Castle Rock homeowners should plan sprinkler winterization before sustained freezing temperatures arrive. Because Colorado weather can change quickly, scheduling early in the fall can help avoid the rush immediately before the first major freeze.

A sprinkler blowout uses compressed air to remove water remaining inside irrigation lines and components before winter.

Water expands when it freezes. Water remaining inside irrigation pipes and components can potentially cause cracks or other damage during freezing temperatures.

The amount of time depends on the size, number of zones, and configuration of the irrigation system.

This depends on the location of the sprinkler controls, water shutoff, and access requirements. Clever Irrigation can explain what access will be needed when you schedule.

Your irrigation controller usually shows the number of programmed zones. If you’re unsure, contact Clever Irrigation before scheduling and we can help.

Sprinkler blowouts require appropriate equipment and knowledge of irrigation systems. Improper air pressure or procedures can potentially damage system components. Professional winterization helps ensure the system is handled correctly.

Contact Clever Irrigation before attempting to restart or blow out a system that may already be frozen. We can help determine the appropriate next step.
