Utah Winter Warning

One freeze can cost you a whole spring of repairs

When water freezes trapped inside an irrigation backflow device or PVC manifold, the expanding ice exerts thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. A $500+ backflow replacement or torn-up lawn to fix 4 split underground lines can easily ruin your spring budget.

Our regulated compressed air method safeguards your pipe walls while ensuring every single drop of water is expelled.

How blowout pricing works

Blowouts are priced straight and simple by the number of zones in your yard (e.g. 1-6 zones, 7-12 zones). Multi-neighbor discounts available if you book together!

Common Questions

Blowout & Start-Up FAQs

When is it too late for a sprinkler blowout in Utah?

Utah usually experiences its first hard ground freeze between late October and mid-November. If nighttime temperatures dip below 32°F for a few hours, your above-ground backflow and shallow lines are at immediate risk. Don't wait until November freezes set in!

Can I just turn the water off and drain the manifold by hand?

No. Gravity draining only empties pipes on steep slopes. Low-lying zones, dips, and lateral lines retain water. When that water freezes, it expands by 9% and splits PVC, poly pipes, and expensive brass backflows.

Do I need to be home during the blowout?

As long as your outdoor irrigation shutoff valve, backflow assembly, and controller (or outside access) are accessible, you don't even need to be home. We leave a service completion tag on your door.

How long does a blowout service take?

A typical 6 to 10-zone residential yard takes roughly 25 to 45 minutes with our high-CFM compressor. We cycle every zone twice to guarantee all moisture is evacuated.
