Setting your sprinklers for lawn sprinkler activation in the spring and preparing for winter blowout can be something you become quite comfortable with on your own. If you are so inclined, here are a few DIY sprinkler guide sheets that you may find useful. If you have a standard PVB (Pressure Vacuum Breaker), it may match these pictures.


We've also discovered a video that provides a comprehensive walk-through of the sprinkler system startup process, step by step. Of course, every system is a little different, but many components and purposes are similar. We’re here to assist you with your spring startup, repairs, and coverage troubleshooting. We stand behind our work and offer long warranties if you need valve or zone work.
