Many homeowners wonder what time of year they should plan their sprinkler installation around. Of course, whenever you’re contracting with a sprinkler installation company the true answer is honestly: “any time of year!” The benefits a sprinkler system brings to your home and your yard are so valuable that it’s not really worth worrying about the month of the year in which you install your system. However, for those truly wondering what time of year is most optimal, the answer is fall!

Here are the reasons why:

  • Fall weather conditions are ideal for sprinkler system installation

    Not only does this make it easier on the installation crew (who don’t have to sweat beneath the summer sun), but it also means the density of the earth beneath your lawn is more pliable. With soil that’s easier to move, your installation will in turn be a smoother process.

  • It’s Less Busy for Your Installation Company

Why should you care? Well, a less busy schedule means a faster turnaround time. Fall is the ideal season to plan your sprinkler installation around if you are trying to get the job done and over with.

  • Offers Your Lawn More Recovery Time

Fall is the ideal season to schedule your sprinkler installation around because in doing so you are guaranteeing your lawn recovers from the installation itself just in time to go dormant for winter. This means you’re not wasting valuable time in the spring or summer trying to water your lawn to recooperate.
