Now onto this month's Blog... Are you seriously ready for the heat and humidity???

We’ve seen how unpredictable Bucks County weather can be—but one thing we can count on? The heat is coming. June is the month where everything kicks into gear: longer days, rising temps, and systems starting to run daily. If there’s ever a time to make sure your irrigation system is ready to handle it, this is it!

Here’s why June matters, and what you should be looking out for:

Heat Exposes Weak Spots Fast.

What worked in April or May might not cut it when the summer sun shows up full force.
As the heat intensifies, you’ll start to notice signs like:

  • Brown or curling grass
  • Dry or thin spots near walkways or sunny slopes
  • Flower beds that just aren't bouncing back after watering

These are often signs of small system issues that only show up once the pressure’s on—literally.

A Mini-Tune-Up Goes a Long Way.

Even if you’ve already had your Spring Startup, now’s a great time for a quick performance check. June is when we catch things like:

  • Zone pressure that's dropped off
  • Spray patterns blocked by plant growth
  • Heads that got bumped or misaligned since last service
  • Slow-draining or soggy areas that weren’t an issue earlier in the season

Small adjustments now can save you from midsummer repairs when systems are working
harder and appointment windows are tighter.

Landscapes Change—Your System Should, Too.

New growth, changing sunlight, and natural plant expansion can throw off even a well-designed system. Heads that had clear paths in spring might now be partially blocked, or the watering needs in a once-shady area may have shifted. Quick visual checks and minor adjustments can keep your system delivering consistent results through the peak of summer.

Want Less Hassle? Go Smart.

June is also a great time to think about simple tech upgrades that make summer easier. Smart controllers and sensors can take the guesswork out of scheduling and help keep your system dialed in even when you’re not around. It’s not about using more or less water—it’s about using it better.

Bottom Line...

June gives you the chance to get ahead—before your system is under full summer stress. If something feels off, or if it’s been a while since anyone gave your system a once-over, we’re here to help you fine-tune things before the real heat rolls in.
