The sprinklers keep the grass green and vibrant on hot summer days. Our sprinkler system has been a source of constant maintenance over the last few years. This years’ service needs have been particularly acute. We have needed to replace a total of three control panels and the water main line. The control panels determine where the water goes. This year we started out with a panel in need of replacement and it was replaced. About two weeks ago the panel was hit by lightning and was destroyed again. Our reaction was lightning rods work why don’t we have one? This was air to ground lightning with nothing we can do with that. The panel was ordered and is being installed this week. Our other panel is in need of replacement and we are getting a loan from our sprinkler contractor until next spring. A quick note on our sprinkler contractor Josh Crowley, he has gone above and beyond to help us out when we needed extra work, he has been responsive and overall just terrific.
Hopefully we will not have to mention the sprinklers in future blog posts this summer
