Winter shut down service
Although we live in Beautiful BC, we still experience freezing temperatures. Annual Winter Shutdown Service is
recommended to protect your irrigation system.
To minimize the risk of freeze damage to your irrigation system, you’ll need to "winterize" it. Our service technicians begin during the last
week of September through to the first week of November. We winterize your sprinkler system by turning off the isolation valve at the main connection. The technician then blows out the water through all the piping, valves and heads with a suitably sized air compressor (185 CFM). If we missed seeing you and had no access to your panel, we have “bled” the solenoid valves from outside. Please ensure that you put your controller in the OFF position or RAIN position. It would be advisable to install a surge protector. This will protect the unit from surges and power outages. If your surge protector is blinking, it has been “hit” and needs replacing.

In order to ensure that we get to all customers before the first cold snap, we ask that you sign up in advance for our Winter Shutdown Service.
Please note: Any system that is leaking badly from the main connection, will be shut down from the main valve if possible. The system will not be winterized. Repairs will be advised and quoted immediately.
