Be Sure to Winterize Your Irrigation System:
|
1) Draining and winterization of your irrigation system. In order to properly drain the exposed above ground portion of your irrigation system make sure you shut down the water inside of the home. Next air relief is needed in order to release water into your basement drain. To do this, simply open the pet-cocks on the backflow using a flathead screwdriver. Then you can remove the drain cap in your basement and the water will drain out into a receptacle. By calling a contractor or using your own air compressor, hook up to the backflow and run through you zones. Using mechanically compressed air through the system will remove any trapped water in your underground portion of the system.
2) Disconnect hoses from the spigots on the outside of your home to prevent freeze. Don't put them away totally though. Colorado can be dry and mild and winter watering of trees and shrubs may be required if little to no moisture comes from mother nature.
