The weather in Kansas can change
quickly. This makes it important to schedule your
winterization appointment when you receive your winterization
reminder postcard from Apex. The temperature and the wind
chill can cause damage to your backflow preventer. Any
resident on city water has a backflow preventer. This can
break when there are freezing temperatures or wind chills. The
water left inside them will expand and cause it it crack.
It's important to keep
an eye on the weather, but a good rule of thumb is to
schedule around October 15th.
If cold weather
comes quickly, you can always cover your backflow
preventer with a trash bag and then with a blanket. We also
have backflow covers for sale. Call now while supplies
are good!!!
When a sprinkler system is on city water, it is winterized by,
the main valve is shut off, water is blown out of the backflow
and sprinkler lines with a 150 CFM compressor.
Customers on well water service have an extended watering
season and can wait until mid-November to winterize their
sprinklers.
The winterization process for those on a well water service is
to turn off the power to the well and blow the water out of
the sprinkler lines. |
