Effective and Efficient Winterization

It is important to have a qualified professional decommission and blow the water out of your underground sprinkler system during the fall months to prevent serious damages caused by freezing. When you have a Bathurst Irrigation technician professionally winterize your sprinkler system it will prevent any damages to your lawn sprinkler system caused by freezing.

Any water sitting in your irrigation pipes can freeze causing the water to expand, breaking and shattering the pipes in your irrigation system. Winterizing your sprinkler system by blowing it out is a sure way to prevent damages caused by freezing. Winterizing your sprinkler systems also acts as assurance. When we winterize your Sprinkler System, we will fix any damages should they occur due to freezing during the spring start-up at no extra cost. Winterization is the best method to protect your sprinkler system from the very expensive and tedious process required to repair lines damaged by freezing.

We are proud to offer one of, if not the most energy efficient fleet of vehicles to blow out your sprinkler system. We have several high-capacity compressors with a rating of 21-28CFM. These are highly efficient and are perfect for flushing out any sprinkler system with a mainline that is 1" or smaller.

For larger systems and commercial irrigation set-ups that have a mainline of 1.5" or greater, we rent a high-capacity tow-behind compressor with a capacity of 185CFM. These are very powerful and typically more than needed for most residential sprinkler systems. The large diesel engines and tow-behind set-up require a lot of fuel and are inefficient, causing a greater carbon footprint. For this reason, we at Bathurst Irrigation have made a conscious effort to use the appropriate and most efficient tools possible to winterize your sprinklers.
