Sprinkler Blowouts in Kamloops

Protect your irrigation system before the first frost

As part of our full irrigation services, we offer professional sprinkler blowouts in Kamloops to prepare your system for winter. Clearing your lines before freezing temperatures hit prevents costly damage and keeps your irrigation system running smoothly for years to come.


Why Sprinkler Blowouts Matter

  • Prevent freeze damage: Frozen water expands, cracking pipes, fittings, and heads.
  • Avoid repair costs: Proper winterization can save hundreds on spring repairs.
  • Extend system life: Seasonal maintenance reduces wear and tear.
  • Ensure a smooth spring start-up: A clean, dry system is ready to go when temperatures rise.

Regular maintenance keeps your system efficient and prevents expensive spring repairs. It’s one of the ways we look out for your yard — making sure your irrigation system stays protected through Kamloops winters.


Our Process

  • System check: We test and inspect each irrigation zone.
  • Air blowout: Compressed air safely removes water from lines, heads, and valves.
  • Final inspection: We confirm the system is fully cleared and winter-ready.

We service residential, commercial, strata, and industrial irrigation systems throughout Kamloops and the Thompson-Nicola region.
If you manage a larger system, you can read more about how blowouts differ for multi-zone or shared systems in our guide:

When To Book

In Kamloops, the first hard frosts usually arrive by late October, but our schedule starts filling up by mid-September. The best time to call and book your sprinkler blowout is between early September and early October.

Booking early lets us secure your spot before temperatures drop and gives flexibility if the weather turns colder sooner than expected.
If you haven’t scheduled yet, our seasonal reminder post — Autumn Alert: Book Your Sprinkler Blowouts Now — explains why timing matters.


Pricing

Pricing depends on system size and layout.

  • Residential systems: Most range from $75–$150, depending on the number of zones.
  • Commercial and strata properties: Priced individually based on system size, access, and complexity.

We can give a quick estimate once we know your property type and number of zones — no obligation.


Common Questions

How long does a blowout take?
Most residential systems take about 30–45 minutes. Larger systems may require more time.

Can I do it myself?
DIY blowouts often use unregulated air pressure, which can damage sprinkler heads or lines. Professional service is safer and more thorough.

What pressure do you use?
We use regulated air pressure appropriate for your system (typically 50–80 PSI).
