Keep Your Sprinkler System in Top Condition with Sprinkler Maintenance Services

A sprinkler check is most useful when you can watch each zone run. Look for water on the pavement, heads hidden by grass, and wet spots that remain after the system stops.

A practical seasonal routine

Use USU Extension’s maintenance checklist for spring inspection and seasonal adjustments. Record problems by zone so they can be checked again after repairs.

Clean heads according to their manufacturer’s instructions. Do not add oil as routine maintenance. Rain Bird’s troubleshooting guide warns against foreign lubricants on its water-lubricated sprinklers.

Adjust watering to conditions

Check Utah’s Weekly Lawn Watering Guide and your water provider’s current restrictions. A schedule from last summer may not fit a cool or rainy week. Check the actual coverage before adding more run time.

Before winter

Arrange winterization before freezing weather. The method depends on the system; Rain Bird explains the main winter preparation steps.
