Sprinkler Blowout

Sprinkler Blowouts Done Right – The Lighthouse Way

At Lighthouse Sprinkler, we believe a sprinkler blowout isn’t just about clearing the lines—it’s about protecting the performance, longevity, and health of your entire irrigation system.

We use one of the most advanced air compressors in the irrigation industry, designed specifically for sprinkler system blowouts. Our equipment continuously monitors and regulates airflow and pressure, ensuring a safe and effective process from start to finish. This allows our technicians to focus on how your system is operating—not just whether it’s being cleared.

In about 95% of our appointments, systems pass with a clean bill of health. But that doesn’t mean we won’t uncover issues along the way.

Winterization is the perfect time to identify sprinkler problems that often go unnoticed during the busy spring and summer months. These can include:

• Underground pipe or connection issues
• Cracked or punctured lines
• Damaged or misaligned sprinkler heads
• Valve box leaks
• Vacuum breaker malfunctions or safety risks

We’ve seen it time and time again—during spring startups, it’s clear when a system was winterized by someone without proper training. Common mistakes made by inexperienced providers include:

• Using excessive air pressure
• Improperly connecting to the vacuum breaker
• A lack of understanding of household plumbing systems

These errors can cause hidden damage to your backflow device, leading to costly repairs down the road.
