Irrigation Activation Services to Start Your System for the Season

Get Your Sprinkler System Ready for Peak Performance

As the seasons change, your irrigation system needs proper activation to ensure it functions efficiently after winter dormancy. At Tatum Lawn Care, we provide professional irrigation activation services to safely turn on your system, check for issues, and optimize settings for effective lawn and landscape watering. Our experienced technicians ensure your sprinklers, drip lines, and timers are working properly so your lawn gets the hydration it needs as the growing season begins.

Why Seasonal Irrigation Activation is Important

After months of inactivity, your sprinkler system may have frozen pipes, misaligned sprinkler heads, or pressure imbalances. Proper activation prevents damage and ensures efficient watering.

Turning on the system too quickly can cause water hammer damage. We ensure a gradual and safe activation.

2. Ensures Proper Water Flow & Pressure

We check for low or high pressure issues that could impact water distribution and system efficiency.

3. Detects & Fixes Winter Damage

We inspect for cracked pipes, broken valves, or clogged sprinkler heads to prevent leaks and water waste.

4. Optimizes Watering Schedules for the Season

Proper programming ensures efficient water use, reducing overwatering and high utility bills.
