After a Cedar City winter, your sprinkler system needs a proper startup before the watering season begins. Turning on a system blindly without checking it first can lead to missed coverage, wasted water, and damage that could have been caught early.
Our spring startup service gets your system running efficiently from day one — so your lawn and landscaping get the water they need right as temperatures start climbing.
What's Included in Spring Startup
- Slow, controlled turn-on of the main water supply to prevent pressure surges
- Zone-by-zone activation and full coverage inspection
- Adjustment of sprinkler heads for proper angle and coverage
- Check for heads damaged over winter that need replacement
- Controller programming for current season watering schedule
- Backflow preventer inspection
- Written report of any issues found during inspection
When Should I Schedule Spring Startup in Cedar City?
In Cedar City, we typically recommend scheduling your spring startup in late March or April, once nighttime temperatures are consistently staying above freezing. Southern Utah's climate allows for an earlier start than most of Utah.
Why Not Just Turn It On Yourself?
You can — but a professional startup catches problems you might not notice right away. A cracked pipe from the winter freeze might only show up as a soggy spot weeks later. A quick startup visit catches these things early, when they're cheap to fix.
Bundle and Save
Many of our customers schedule both spring startup and fall winterization with us. Ask about bundling both services when you call — we're happy to work out a package that saves you money across the full season.
