It’s that time of year – the time of year where we’re all ready for spring, but the weather hasn’t quite caught up with us yet.

Unfortunately, this season can also be damaging to our irrigation system. If your backflow preventer is frozen, it’s time to take action – and restore functionality to your property before it’s too late.

Frozen backflow: Know what to look for

There are a few indicators that your backflow preventer sends to tell you that something just isn’t right. And when the issue is a deep freeze, you don’t have to look hard. The following signs necessitate a call to Doctor Sprinkler:

• A burst vacuum breaker
• Ice buildup around the backflow preventer
• Cracks and other vulnerabilities in the system

A frozen backflow preventer isn’t unlike frozen pipes. It’s obvious, it’s common, and it can put your property at a standstill. It’s our job to reverse the damage.
