There is nothing worse than having to replace your irrigation system in the spring because water got left in the pipes all winter long. Winterizing irrigation in Roanoke is exactly what you need this year to prevent a stressful spring. SPI Landscaping clears out all the water from the pipes to prevent ice damage.
It’s Pure Science!
When the temperatures start to dip below freezing, it could mean life or death for more than just your plants. The irrigation systems that weren’t shut down and cleared out properly will have to be replaced when the snow thaws. Unfortunately, you won’t know until it is too late. When water freezes, it expands because it changes from a liquid to a solid. The more water that is left in the pipes, the less room there is for expansion, and then your pipes end up bursting. SPI Landscaping clears out your pipes completely, so this scenario doesn’t happen to you.
