Sprinkler System Winterization in Wylie TX

North Texas winters are mild, but they’re not freeze-free. A handful of hard freezes each year is enough to crack an unprotected backflow preventer or split exposed piping, turning a simple precaution you skipped into an expensive spring repair. New Life Irrigation winterizes sprinkler systems for homeowners throughout Wylie and the surrounding DFW area so your system is ready when the cold hits.

What’s Included in Winterization

• Shutting off the water supply to the irrigation system
• Draining or blowing out remaining water from pipes and heads
• Insulating or protecting exposed backflow devices
• Adjusting or powering down the controller for the off season
• A full check of valves and heads before shutdown

Why Winterization Matters in North Texas

It’s tempting to skip winterization since DFW rarely sees the kind of deep freeze that other regions deal with all winter. But even a few nights below 28°F can be enough to crack a backflow preventer or burst a pipe if water is left sitting inside it. The cost of winterizing your system is a fraction of what it costs to replace a cracked backflow assembly or repair burst pipes in the spring.

Timing Matters

Waiting until the first freeze warning to schedule winterization means competing with every other homeowner who had the same idea. We recommend scheduling in October or early November, before the first hard freeze of the season, so your system is protected well ahead of time.
