Care for Your Sprinkler System with Irrigation Repair & Maintenance

It is very important to start-up and test your irrigation system each spring. It is important to operate each zone, check the adjustment of each sprinkler, and make sure that no damage has been done to the system through the winter. Ensuring that the time and date, program start times, and zone run times are properly set are crucial for optimum performance of your system. Contact us to schedule your spring start-up. We offer irrigation system start up to both new and existing customers.

Why Maintaining Your Irrigation System is Essential

Much like any machine, appliance, or system part of your property, an automated irrigation system will require consistent care to ensure it always runs at peak efficiency. Otherwise, you might spend your season looking at a dead lawn or outrageous water bills! Thankfully, the Tri-County Irrigation teams quickly resolve any irrigation problems, ensuring your property is prepared for the season ahead. Care of your sprinklers leads to benefits like:

  • Greater Water Efficiency – If your system isn’t correctly programmed, it might not use water efficiently! A professional can ensure your irrigation system uses as much water as necessary, reducing water waste and lowering utility bills.
  • System Longevity – As time and usage take their toll, components of your irrigation system may begin to break or wear down. Our experienced technicians offer consistent care and timely repairs that extend the lifespan of your irrigation system, ensuring reliable service for years to come.
  • Cost-Savings – Besides the money you save on utility costs, maintaining your sprinklers helps you avoid otherwise expensive repairs or replacements. By catching problems ahead of time, yearly repair and maintenance costs are significantly lower.
  • Greener Lawns – If your sprinklers deliver insufficient or too much water, your lawn will suffer. A well-maintained irrigation system delivers the right amount of water to your lawns and plants, promoting healthier growth and vibrant greenery.

System Winterization

How your irrigation system was installed will determine the means necessary for preparing your system for winter. Your system will either incorporate an automatic drain or blow out a system. Most of the residential systems installed by Tri-County Irrigation are automatic drains. This means you don’t have to use compressed air to ‘blowout’ the system each winter. Blowout systems are usually reserved for larger-scale commercial projects and a few residential systems. This type of system requires a high-volume air compressor to complete the winterization process. Contact us to schedule your system winterization. We offer irrigation system winterization for both automatic drain and blowout systems.

Backflow Prevention Device Certification

The State of Illinois plumbing code requires a backflow preventer to be installed on every lawn irrigation system and tested annually. A backflow preventer is a critical plumbing device designed to protect potable water supplies from contamination or pollution due to backflow. Backflow occurs when water flows in the opposite direction than it should, potentially allowing harmful substances from various sources (like your irrigation system). We have several licensed plumbers who are certified to test your backflow preventer. Please contact our service department to schedule your test today.

Upgrade to Wi-Fi

Install the new Rainbird LNK Wi-Fi Module into your existing irrigation system to control your system anywhere.  Control your irrigation system directly from your smartphone via a free App and receive critical real-time alerts.  Weather data from the internet automatically adjusts your system run times daily, saving up to 30% in water!

WR2 Wireless Rain/Freeze Sensor

This wireless sensor saves time and water and improves system performance by delivering rainfall and cold temperatures data to the controller. Weather data is updated every 45 seconds to ensure a reliable water management system. Program the rainfall set points and save up to 35% on water usage. Don’t worry about overwatering or freeze damage, whether you’re home or away.
