Sprinkler Startup Wichita, KS

The most common time for Wichita property owners to turn their lawn sprinkler systems back on is late March to early May.

After a long winter, the freezing temperatures and snow can be extremely harsh on your sprinkler system and each of its components. That’s where our Wichita lawn care experts come in for a sprinkler startup. Wichita, KS residential and commercial property owners can always count on The Grounds Guys for spring startup services. Our team will ensure that your sprinklers are well-equipped for the summertime and will tend to any necessary sprinkler system repairs for optimal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sprinkler Startup: Wichita, KS

At The Grounds Guys, we strive to provide knowledgeable and professional services and want to ensure that all your Wichita sprinkler startup questions are answered.

  • Backflow testing is a mandatory annual inspection of backflow devices installed on sprinkler and irrigation systems that are connected to the city’s water supply. These essential devices prevent municipal water contamination by stopping water from flowing back into the main water supply from the sprinkler system. Therefore, this is an essential part of sprinkler startup. Wichita, KS requires all property owners to schedule backflow testing to ensure compliance with local regulations. Our team of experts is trained to conduct inspections, repairs, and testing of all types of sprinkler backflow preventers.

  • Our sprinkler services are designed to be comprehensive, ensuring each and every component is in optimal performance. Not only do we want to ensure your lawn is receiving an adequate amount of water, but we also want to ensure your sprinkler system operates efficiently so you’re not wasting any water. There is much included in our professional sprinkler startup. Wichita, KS residents can expect us to:

    • Turn on the water supply
    • Test each zone
    • Adjust and repair damaged sprinkler heads
    • Start up the controller
    • Program the water schedule and timers
    • Check the backflow preventer

  • If your sprinkler system is connected to the city’s water supply, your startup service will begin in late March to early May. However, for property owners connected to a private well, their timing can be different for a sprinkler startup. Wichita, KS property owners using well water can turn their systems on earlier in the season. This is because their well water supply is not subject to the same municipal regulations. Furthermore, sprinkler systems using well water don’t typically have above-ground backflow preventers, which are susceptible to freezing.

  • Wichita, KS residents can do a couple of things to prepare their systems for startup before our team comes in for a professional service:

    • Check that the ground is thawed by inserting a shovel about a foot into the soil. If it’s easy to dig and malleable, the system can be turned on.
    • Monitor the weather forecast to avoid powering on your system in freezing temperatures.
    • Schedule your appointment for a sprinkler startup as soon as possible.

  • While it’s typically obvious that your sprinkler requires a comprehensive repair, some signs are more telling than others. That’s why we perform a comprehensive sprinkler startup. Wichita, KS homeowners can expect our team to inspect for signs of damage that need to be effectively and efficiently repaired before the sprinkler system is used. Nevertheless, being aware of the warning signs that it’s time for a sprinkler repair will save you time and money in the long run. Signs to watch out for include:

    • Puddles forming around the sprinkler heads
    • Soggy or wet spots on the lawn
    • Uneven watering
    • Water leaks from the sprinkler heads
    • Sprinklers not projecting water as far as they normally do
    • Low water pressure
    • Erratic watering schedules
    • Unexpected high water bills
