Some sprinkler systems require a more specialized setup, especially when they draw water from a natural source like a lake. These systems need to be checked carefully at the beginning of the season to make sure the pump, water flow, and irrigation zones are all working properly.

Recently, our team at American Lawn Sprinkler completed a seasonal sprinkler system start-up for a homeowner in Oxford, Michigan using a 5-horsepower pump to draw water from a lake and feed the irrigation system.

Lake-Fed Sprinkler System Start-Up in Oxford, MI

This project was completed at a residential property in Oxford, MI. The customer’s sprinkler system uses lake water as its source, with a 5-horsepower pump helping supply water to the system.

During the season start-up, our technicians checked the pump operation, confirmed proper water flow, and made sure the sprinkler system was running correctly. Systems like this require proper setup and inspection to ensure dependable performance throughout the watering season.

Why Pump-Fed Sprinkler Systems Need Proper Start-Up
