Why do you need to winterize your irrigation system?

Everyone knows that if we stay outdoors in this beautiful country during winter we can freeze to death; In the case of your irrigation system, it will freeze to break apart. Bellow zero the water in the pipes will dilate and will make your pipes and accessories just crack. This is why we need to drain the pipes before the temperature goes down to zero.

Very few residential and commercial irrigation systems are designed to drain by gravity, which means that few systems are not equipped with outputs in the lower parts of the piping that will allow the system to drain when the pipes are not under pressure anymore.

Blowing faucet connection (Lower right corner).

This is why VAQUAM Inc offers the service to mechanically blow the water out of all the pipes with the help of a compressor. If you don’t have installed a blowing faucet connection, we will install one to be able to connect the compressor hose.

We start winterizing on October 1st. Call us for an appointment at +1.438.9323532.
