Freeze Protection & Spring Start-Up in Tomball
Tomball sits west of 249. January freeze damage on backflows is a regular job. Well grit eats diaphragms. We ask which water you are on.
The Woodlands does not get a Denver winter, but a Gulf freeze still splits backflow bodies and above-grade PVC. We wrap, drain where it helps, and come back in spring to run every station and replace what cracked. This page is the freeze protection & spring start-up path for Tomball.
What we look for
- Forecast below freezing overnight
- Cracked backflow after a cold snap
- A station that ran all winter and now will not
- Need a spring start-up before the first mow
Call (832) 702-3111 or send a request. ZIP codes often used: 77375, 77377.
