Sprinkler Winterization & Blowout

Prepare for Utah’s harsh winters with professional sprinkler winterization from Local Sprinkler Pros. When temperatures drop below freezing, any water left in your irrigation system can freeze, expand, and cause pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads to crack or burst. Our winterization and blowout services remove all water from your system to prevent damage and ensure a smooth start-up come spring.

Don’t leave your sprinkler system at risk—book your blowout service before the first freeze to protect your investment and avoid costly repairs.

Why Winterizing Your Sprinkler System Is Essential

Utah winters are no joke. Even one hard freeze can cause thousands of dollars in damage to unprotected irrigation systems. Winterizing is a quick, affordable way to safeguard your pipes and components through the coldest months.

Benefits of sprinkler winterization:

  • Prevent Burst Pipes & Valves
    Water left inside the system can freeze and expand, cracking PVC, copper, or poly piping.
  • Avoid Expensive Spring Repairs
    Broken heads, cracked manifolds, and underground leaks often go unnoticed until spring—when repair costs stack up fast.
  • Protect Your Landscaping
    A damaged system in spring can delay proper watering, harming your lawn and plant growth.
  • Preserve System Life
    Routine winterization prevents wear and tear, extending the life of your sprinkler system.

What’s Included in Our Winterization & Blowout Service

Our team uses professional-grade air compressors and a careful, step-by-step process to ensure your system is fully cleared and protected.

1. Water Supply Shut-Off

We start by safely turning off your system’s main water source.

2. Backflow Prevention Inspection

We inspect your backflow device (if applicable) and prepare it for winter to prevent freeze damage.

3. Zone-by-Zone Air Blowout

Using controlled bursts of compressed air, we remove all remaining water from each irrigation zone—without damaging heads, valves, or piping.

4. Timer & Controller Adjustment

We shut down your controller and make note of your current settings for easy restart in the spring.

5. Final System Check & Recommendations

Before leaving, we confirm the entire system is dry and offer tips or service suggestions for spring startup or upgrades.

When Should You Schedule Your Sprinkler Blowout?

Timing is everything. It’s best to winterize your sprinkler system before the first deep freeze—typically between late September and early November in American Fork.

Booking early ensures:

  • You get your preferred appointment time
  • You avoid emergency service fees
  • Your system is protected before sudden temperature drops

Common Problems Caused by Skipping Winterization

Skipping this critical step can lead to:

  • Burst lateral and mainline pipes
  • Cracked sprinkler heads and manifolds
  • Damaged backflow preventers and valves
  • Delayed or costly spring repairs
  • Water damage to foundations or nearby hardscapes
