Maintenance
The maintenance team at Smart Water operates to ensure that installed irrigation systems are kept in optimal condition for the lifetime of their use. Smart Water’s experienced technicians can perform irrigation audits, system upgrades, scheduled or irregular maintenance, and emergency repairs for your irrigation system.
For domestic customers, it is recommended to make a maintenance booking before the weather warms up so that you can enjoy your garden throughout the summer. Inspecting your system for any damage, ensuring filters and equipment are in working condition, and checking the health of your irrigation system are important steps to take.
For commercial customers, it is recommended that you discuss the optimal frequency of maintenance depending on the size, complexity, and use of the irrigation system with the installation team.
