Spring
Irrigation Start-up
Service Information
C N’R will contact the customer of the date/time frame of arrival to
complete this service.
C N’R will require access to the inside of the house/building to make
sure water valves are turned on properly. Also, C N’R will require
access to the area where the control box is located. Once all the water
valves are in the proper state, C N’R will go through the entire
irrigation system to make sure all zones are in good working condition.
Once all zones are in their proper state, C N’R will set the irrigation
control box to an odd/even (every other day according to City Law)
scheduling format. As weather conditions change throughout the season,
later adjustments to the control box (zone watering times) may be
needed. C N’R will not be responsible for seasonal adjustments to the
control box, although available upon request at an additional fee. All
miscellaneous maintenance repairs such as damaged heads, water leaks,
zone valve problems, back-flow problems, rain sensor malfunctioning,
irrigation control box problems including a low or dead battery; or any
other type of system problem
C N’R encounters; C N’R will repair on site for an additional charge of
time plus materials. There are occasions when C N’R cannot finish
repairing a major problem during the same visit.

The first thing we do when we arrive is locate the “Back Flow” system. At that point, we find the plug and insert it so that the back flow is ready for us to turn on the water from the inside. |
 |
|
As the heads pop up while going through each zone, we go through each head one by one. We make sure the head is working properly with no leaks, and we make sure it is covering properly and make the proper adjustments. When we do find a bad head, we flag it to be dug up once we have gone through the entire system. |

|
Once the water is on, then we turn on the back flow a certain way to test the seal to see if there is a leak, etc. |
 |
|
Once we have fully gone through each zone, we return to each flagged area and fix what needs to be fixed. The most common is replacing a head. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
Now that the water is turned on and the back flow looks good, we then go to the control box for the system which is usually located in the garage. We plug it in, get it ready to go, and turn on zone 1. This is the start of our "walk through" of the system. |
 |
|
We dig around the head properly so when we unscrew the head to replace it, no soil falls into the opened end. It is not good for the system when you allow the soil to get into it. It can lead to other problems. If we make a mistake and allow soil to get into the system, at that point we stop and flush out the system. |
|
Once we are totally completed with replacing everything that needs
to be replaced, we set up your control box to water your lawn
automatically. We set the zone times, the start times, etc. For all
customers, we set the start time date to the current odd/even laws
that are regulated. For instance: If the last digit of your address
is an odd number, we set up your system to only water on odd days.
NOTE: If your control box does not have an "odd/even" water day
feature, then we set it up for every other day depending on if you
are odd or even. Remember, at the end of certain months, you will
need to change the every other day a bit because there can be two
odd days in a row or vice versa. Example? July 31, then it goes to
August 1. That is two odd days in a row and if you are set up to run
every other day, now you will be watering on the even days.
