System Froze and Leaking?

We went from a warm fall to night time winter temperatures quickly and backflows are freezing and breaking before appointments. If this happens shut the water supply off in the basement (usually a yellow lever) and if there is a spigot attached to the backflow outside, please open that so any water that can drain, will. Also wrapping the backflow with a blanket, towel, etc. will try and help keep the deep frost away. 

Are your sprinklers stuck on? Don't panic!

Have you tried shutting off the sprinklers at the clock timer and they still run? It sounds like you have a problem with one of the valves in the ground. To save your sprinklers from running until we return your call - find the backflow preventer which is usually located in the front of the house. It will be copper piping that connects the sprinklers to the water supply in the house. There will be levers - turn a lever so it is perpendicular to the pipe it's on. This will shut off the water to the sprinkler system.
​
​Below are two examples of popular backflow preventers we work with and install:

 “I’ve been an M&M Sprinkler customer since 1990 and have since expanded my system two more times.  Every dealing I’ve had with M&M has been effortless and always responsive.  The installation and service prices are very reasonable, the professional advice is always practical and sensible (without any pressure to sell me more than I need or want), and the seasonal services are quick and inexpensive.  The work is high quality and they are very customer service oriented.   I wish all my other home improvements always went as smoothly!”   Andrew Cohn,  Newton, MA
