Winter Is Coming — Is Your Irrigation System Ready for the Cold?

As temperatures start to dip across Northwest Louisiana, now’s the perfect time to prepare your irrigation system for winter. At Lawnmasters of Shreveport, we know firsthand how quickly a light freeze can turn into a costly repair bill. That’s why we recommend getting your irrigation winterization scheduled before cold weather sets in.

Why Winterization Matters

Even a small amount of water left in your irrigation pipes, valves, or backflow preventer can freeze and expand, leading to cracks, leaks, and other damage. These repairs aren’t just inconvenient — they can get expensive fast. Winterizing your system now ensures that water is properly drained, air is blown out safely, and all components are protected through the winter months.

When spring rolls back around, your system will be ready to go without missing a beat.

3 Big Reasons to Winterize Early

1. Prevent Damage
The earlier you schedule winterization, the better your chances of avoiding freeze-related damage. Louisiana weather can be unpredictable — one cold snap is all it takes to freeze standing water in your irrigation lines. Our irrigation technicians make sure your system is cleared and safely shut down for the season.

2. Save Time
Winterization appointments fill up quickly! Booking early means you get the best time slot that fits your schedule. If you’ve had your system winterized by us before, great news — you’re already on our schedule. Our team will reach out to confirm everything before your appointment.

3. Protect Your Investment
Proper irrigation care extends the life of your system, ensuring it performs efficiently year after year. Regular maintenance and winterization keep your landscape healthy and your equipment running smoothly, saving you money long-term.
