Can I maintain irrigation system myself? jvminnick 11-04-2006
I just bought a house with a pretty sophisticated looking irrigation
system (Toro). I've no previous experience with these. The previous
owner purchased an annual maintenance service to start it up in the
spring and winterize it in the fall. The guy came out today --
terrific fellow -- to purge the system. He told me it was $285 for the
annual service. I'm not sure I want to pay that, and I KNOW my wife
will flip out when she hears, but I do not want to just let such a nice
system go unused. I do have access to an air compressor for purging,
but do not know trying to self-service all this myself is over my head.
Anyone have any advice or know where I can get detailed instructions
about how to do it myself?
