Your irrigation system<\/a> worked hard all summer, but is fall the time to shut it down for the Winter? In South Carolina, we don\u2019t need to winterize our irrigation systems the same way in colder states to the north. Here\u2019s what you need to know about taking care of your grass and sprinkler system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep Watering<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Watering your grass in the summer is a no-brainer, but what about Winter? The general rule in the south is to keep watering year-round, even when the grass becomes dormant. In the Winter, the exception is when it rains. If we have a particularly wet fall and Winter, you won\u2019t need to water as much. When it\u2019s dry for more than a few days and the soil is dry, it\u2019s a good idea to turn on the sprinklers and irrigate your lawn and landscaping. It\u2019s beneficial to water in the morning instead of the evening to avoid fungus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Irrigation System Winterization<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In other states where the temperatures regularly get to freezing and below, it\u2019s critical to drain and blow out sprinkler systems. In the south, with our mild climate, that\u2019s generally not necessary. However, protecting components from freezing is still essential since we get some cold nights. If you have any exposed water pipes, drain them and the pumps. The rest of the system, especially what\u2019s underground, should be fine in the South Carolina fall and Winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
