One of the easiest and most effective ways to maintain a beautiful green lawn is utilizing a sprinkler system. Sprinklers ensure that all of your lawn gets the water it needs for the grass to grow. However, if your sprinkler system is failing you in any way, you aren’t going to get that green lawn you’re looking for. Here are a few common signs that your system needs a professional sprinkler maintenance service to function properly again.
- Failure to activate. A sure and obvious sign that your sprinklers need some attention is failure to activate. Whether all sprinklers are stuck and not turning on or just one particular zone is staying dry, it’s important to address inactive sprinklers so your lawn can get evenly watered.
- Mist. Your sprinkler system requires the right water pressure to work effectively. When your sprinklers are on, you should notice a jet of water. If you’re seeing mist come from your sprinklers instead, you’ll need sprinkler maintenance. Mist indicates that the water pressure in your sprinklers is too high.
- Leaking. Have puddles started accumulating underneath your sprinkler heads? If so, you’re most likely dealing with a leak. Leaks can be a costly problem to ignore, so it’s best to get them patched up and taken care of sooner rather than later to avoid large jumps in your water bill.
