Do we really need to winterize irrigation systems on Vancouver Island?
Yes!
Regardless of the type of pipe your system is built with, or how it’s been done in the past, all irrigation systems should have the water removed from the lines in the fall to prevent damage and excess wear & tear in the winter months. Over time, fittings, joints, and threaded items can become weakened due to contraction and expansion of freeze/thaw cycles even when larger breaks and damage isn’t visible.
IRRIGO can be counted on to get your system winterized properly and professionally as part of our irrigation management approach, and the fall is a great time to start a new irrigation management relationship with us.
