Identifying Areas

Getting Started

So, we will pick them out and give you tips on how to take care of them.

Swimming pool

  • Endeavor to keep it's filters clean by removing the cap, taking away it's basket and emptying the content of the filter
  • Clean out it's pipes by enabling the Backwash mode of the filter. Afterward, turn your pump on and let it run
  • Change the water by running off the water in it.

Sprinkler System

  • When your lawn is overwatered, the lawn becomes spongy. Therefore, take care of that by running off some water through into a gutter, puddle or the street
  • Adjust your sprinkler head when water from your lawn gradually builds up on your sidewalk or driveway
  • You may also use a timer to control your sprinkler because it always wastes water
  • Check for leaks

Pipes

  • Check for leaks around your surrounding
