Simply put, a lot! New weather-based controllers integrate real-time weather data with your yard's specifics to manage the sprinkler system all by itself! It takes a true expert to understand all the different parameters. We take expertise a notch above that by having experience with industry-first installations and programming (Hunter/Rainbird Commerical Controllers).
While there is no exact date when to turn off your sprinklers, you'll want to make sure you do so before an unexpected freeze. Many people schedule their irrigation systems to be winterized from now through November. Be sure to ask about a 20% discount on this year's winterization services after scheduling your spring activation service.

All pictures on the website were personally taken by our founder. Below is an example of a common issue repaired early this summer. Invoices always include pictures and descriptions of the work done.
8/3/20 @ Cobblestone HOA - Performed walkthrough inspection of the controller at Fresia/CastleOaks, finding (2) serious issues requiring immediate attention. The first being a broken head next to the backflow supply for the controller on zone 27. The next being a broken Male adapter and 45° coupling right outside valve box #30, disabling the turf zone from running. It was found shut off as a 1.5" lateral leak would cause substantial erosion in the area. (2) Rotor heads were found operating on spray zones with precision nozzles and need to be replaced with spray heads with precision nozzles to unify the distribution rates. The spray head that was leaking near the backflow was replaced with a new Rainbird 1806 Spray Head and excavated to verify no leaks were present from the lateral line. Valve box #30 was excavated to repair the lateral line leak from broken PVC fittings. Parts were obtained from CPS for the repair. Once parts were acquired the repair was completed. As a final step, the zone was turned on, capable of resuming regular operation.
As a Colorado Native, our founder grew up with memories of air hissing out sprinklers heralding seasonal change. The process of sprinkler winterization/blow-out expels water from the sprinkler system via pressurized air. This protects the system components from cracking from cold temperatures through the winter. Our winterization service involves turning off the sprinkler supply, introducing pressurized air into the system to expel water from the system, and insulating the exposed PVB and ball-valve brass component.
During this time an optional free inspection is done to determine how well the system is working and suggest what improvements can be made.
What are the benefits of the new weather-based controllers?
Having more time to enjoy your yard while the controller manages the sprinkler system has incredible value. With a weather-based controller, there is no need to increase the water when it's hot out or shut it off before it rains as the system does it automatically! Scientifically speaking, these controllers use the most advanced technology available to measure exactly how much water is needed. When properly set up by an expert technician you're guaranteed to have the most efficient system out there! Saving time, water, money, and peace of mind so you can get the most value from your home.

Lawns are beautiful, but lawn care can be complicated. Our knowledgeable staff will care for your lawn using tested, proven, and ecologically gentle techniques.

Many standards used in Texas in California actually cause disease and stressed brown grass because of poor root health!
