Troubleshooting Your Sprinkler System
By listening to your account of what is wrong and by doing a quick sprinkler system inspection, our irrigation experts can quickly diagnose your problems and come up with a repair plan.
Below are our top tips for dealing with sprinkler problems:
How to Tell If Your Sprinkler System is Leaking
These are the signs of a likely in-ground sprinkler leak that you should not ignore:
- An unexpected spout of water
- Fungal growth nearby (Could also be a sign of over-watering)
- Puddles between sprinkler heads
- Sprinkler spraying dirty water
- Low water pressure
- Water trickling from the sprinkler head after the system is turned off
- A fan-shaped deposit of sediment on the sidewalk (Also called analluvial sediment deposit)
Also, take a look at your latest water bills. Were any of them significantly higher than in previous months? Some water companies will give you a notification if they believe you have a leak, but they won't catch everything. If you think you need sprinkler repair in Royal Palm Beach, give us a call today!
How to Shut Off Water to Your Sprinkler System
There are two ways to go about this depending on the issue:
- Water is only leaking when sprinkler system is on: Turn the sprinkler system controller to the "off" position. If you're not the one normally dealing with the system, this might not be so obvious! The controller box is typically a gray, square-shaped device that may be able to open and close. It's frequently installed inside garages.
- Water is leaking when sprinkler system is off as well: You will need to shut off the water to your sprinkler system completely. By just using the backflow device, you will be able to keep water flowing to the rest of your home. Search for a green, square box near the city water meter, and open it and turn one of the handles to an off position. Sometimes this may be located in your basement.
If these methods fail to do the trick, then you can shut off the water to your entire house. The shutoff valve can be located inside or outside of your home. It is probably located somewhere on the perimeter of your house, facing the street. If you have a copy of your property inspection report, there will be information on locating this in the plumbing section.
How to Fix Low Water Pressure in Sprinklers
Low water pressure in sprinklers can be frustrating and lead to a lackluster gardening experience. Fortunately, there are several steps you can take to improve the issue:
- First, check if any of your valves are partially closed or malfunctioning. Reduced water pressure could be caused by an obstruction in the water supply line, too. You may need to contact your local plumber if that’s the case.
- Second, you could try cleaning out the filter and heads of your sprinkler system. Debris could cause a decrease in functionality.
- Third, air pockets or a damaged pump can also affect performance, but those require professional repairs.
With these easy tips and some patience, you’ll hopefully soon enjoy a well-functioning sprinkler system once more!
How to Fix Your Sprinkler System: Tips and Tricks
While some minor repairs or replacements of your sprinkler system can be done by yourself, more extensive repairs or upgrades should always be handled by professionals like the sprinkler repair experts at Conserva Irrigation of North Palm Beach lest you risk further damaging your system. However, here are a few tips and tricks that may help you with minor repairs without needing to call in the experts.
If your sprinkler heads are sputtering or spraying water inconsistently, make sure all of your sprinkler heads are properly aligned and at the correct angle of distribution so that water is evenly distributed across the area you want to water. If you've recently added new sprinkler heads, double check that they are pointing in the right direction and functioning correctly as well.
If you suspect a clog or blockage in your system, use a flashlight to try to identify where the obstruction might be located, and then use a small tool such as a screwdriver to try to poke it through and unclog it. If this is unsuccessful, replacing the affected section of piping may be necessary.
If there is any leaking in your sprinkler system, check all of the connections between fittings for any loose ones. If any are found, tighten them securely using a wrench or pliers. If there is a broken, punctured or cracked pipe, you can try using sealant, epoxy putty or other types of pipe clamps to patch up the leaks where possible.
If these DIY sprinkler repair attempts don’t work, it may be time to call the sprinkler repair professionals at Conserva Irrigation of North Palm Beach to repair or or even replace the entire system. Installing a sprinkler system can be a tricky operation, requiring precision and expertise to ensure the job is done right. The experts at Conserva Irrigation of North Palm Beach are trained in all aspects of sprinkler repair and installation, from fixing broken pipes and valves to replacing entire systems.

Protecting Your Lawn During the Wet Season
You are probably asking yourself, “why do I need help to protect my lawn during the wet season?” Well, older sprinkler systems are preprogrammed to run regardless of weather conditions. Oftentimes, you see these systems running full tilt during the middle of a rainstorm and this is incredibly wasteful, both with water and your money.

We utilize the best technology comprised of weather sensors that communicate with the best sprinkler system controller you can buy to reduce watering your lawn at times when the weather conditions dictate no watering is needed.
