  • Q. What are the components of an automatic sprinklers system?

    A. A typical system is comprised of a controller (which functions as the brains of the system), valves (which open and close to release and stop the flow of water to underground pipes) and sprinklers (which distribute water to specific areas). The sprinkler system can be customized further with rain shut off devices, and drip irrigation zones.

    A. Superb Sprinkler Service offers a wide selection of the most advanced sprinkler timers and controllers that are powerful enough to meet your customized watering needs, while being simple to program and adjust.

  • Q. How much maintenance is required for a sprinkler system?

    A. Maintenance is important to ensure that the system continues to run smoothly and efficiently. The most important service is the fall shutdown. The water supply is shut off and compressed air evacuates the water from the lines and sprinkler heads. In the spring, we return to start the system back up and check all components to your system for any damage that may have happened during the winter months.
