The Comstock Estates irrigation water system is scheduled to be turned on the morning of Saturday, April 17.

1. It is very important that all of the valves on the homeowner’s system be CLOSED before water is turned on for the first time. Close the valve on your system before water is turned on April 17 to avoid flooding of your yard when water enters our irrigation system. Too many of us have learned this from experience.

2. Please make any needed repairs ahead of time with the repair company of the homeowner’s choice. Determine whether your system needs repairs between now and Saturday, April 17. This would include any visible problems to your pipes/pumps or any known/existing problems.

3. We ask that all homeowners and tenants bring their home irrigation systems on line as soon as the water becomes available on April 17. Chuck’s Sprinkler Services will perform the opening of the main valve on Saturday, April 17. Check later in the morning (probably after 10 am) to see if your water has arrived by turning your valve on.

• If it seems to be working fine, you can turn off your valve and open it when you intend on using the water for your yard.
• If your system springs a leak or isn’t working, Chuck’s Sprinkler Services will have several crews and trucks available in the area to perform immediate repairs to systems that exhibit leaks on start up. Please contact Chuck’s Sprinkler at 970-243-6294 for these immediate repairs on that day. Some leaks or system problems may require an immediate shut down of the system to complete repairs.
• To minimize additional stress on our irrigation system and disruptions in homeowner’s normal lawn care cycles we ask that all homeowners check their systems on April 17th. In years past, some homeowners delayed initial use of their systems for up to 3 weeks, only to discover a problem that required a shut-down of the system to fix. These additional start-ups and shut-downs could have possibly been avoided, and we would like to minimize these as much as possible.
  • If a homeowner is going to be out of town the weekend of April 17 and 18, it would be very beneficial if they could arrange for a neighbor or trusted friend to check their system on Saturday and help coordinate any access and repairs if they are needed.

4. Questions?

• If you are new to Grand Valley irrigation systems, you might talk to your neighbors to get a few pointers.
