Proper maintenance is essential for the long - term performance of irrigation sprinkler systems. Regularly check the sprinkler heads for any signs of damage or clogging. Clean the heads and remove any debris that may be blocking the water flow.

Inspect the pipes for leaks and repair them promptly. Check the water pressure regularly to ensure that it is within the recommended range. If the pressure is too low or too high, it can affect the performance of the sprinklers.

It's also a good idea to winterize the sprinkler system in cold climates to prevent damage from freezing. This may involve draining the water from the pipes and protecting the components from the cold.
