💧System Activation

Schedule Service – Quick & Easy

Activation & Multi-Point Inspection

Springtime sprinkler system activation includes a thorough, multi-point inspection to ensure your system is running properly, watering evenly, and free of leaks. Here is what is included:

Main Water Supply Turn-On
We pressurize the system and check for any immediate issues once water is introduced.

Backflow Preventer Check
The backflow device is inspected for visible damage, leaks, or other concerns.

Manifold Box Inspection
Valve boxes are checked for pooling water, damaged fittings, or signs of underground leaks.

Zone-by-Zone Operation Test
Each zone is run from the control clock. We observe every head for proper operation, consistent pressure, and even coverage.

Leak Detection
We check valves, pipes, spray heads, and connection points throughout the system for leaks.

Spray Head Adjustment
Spray heads are adjusted to improve coverage, reduce overspray, and minimize dry spots.

Drip Line Inspection
Drip zones are inspected for visible leaks, breaks, or winter damage.

Control Clock Programming
We review or set your seasonal watering schedule based on your landscape needs and local watering restrictions. Your updated settings are included in your written report.

Castle Rock Lawn & Sprinkler did a spring irrigation system activation for us and did an outstanding job. Vince walked us through a system we were unfamiliar with, made recommendations, and fixed a couple of leaks he found. Everything was explained clearly, and the system has been working great since.” — Homeowner, Douglas County
