It is that time of the year when farmers and homeowners need to think about winterizing their irrigation systems.  So, as the winter months approach, there are a few publications that can help you winterize the irrigation systems.

 

For the farming community with center pivots and drip irrigation systems see Winterizing Your Irrigation System which is a UGA CAES Publication.

For the homeowners see the publications on winterizing from

Rainbird Irrigation and

Hunter Irrigation

 

Other sites are available and the inclusion of these two is just a  starting point.

Protecting the irrigation system this winter will potentially save you time and money in the spring when the systems are turned on for the spring and summer.
