Sprinkler Repairs, Installs, and Maintenance in Millcreek, UT
Millcreek soils are mostly clay-rich loam or silt loam with alkaline properties and calcium carbonate layers that can form a hardpan. This means water does not soak in quickly and can pool or run off if applied too fast. Many areas also have rocky subsoil. For sprinkler repair and installation in Millcreek, systems work best with slower watering, shorter cycles, and proper head spacing to avoid puddling while still keeping lawns healthy.
We are licensed with Utah's Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL) to perform landscape irrigation services in Millcreek. We are also fully insured in case anything ever goes wrong.
We guarantee arrival within 48 hours (during business days) or you get $25 off the cost of your visit. During the hot summer months, Utah's cool-season grass gets hit hard by the heat.

City Information
What Homeowners Need to Know About Irrigation Systems in Millcreek
Most Millcreek homes use culinary (drinking) water for irrigation, provided by utilities like Salt Lake City Public Utilities, Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, or Holliday Water Company. Culinary water is metered and uses tiered pricing, meaning rates increase as usage goes up. Some properties also have secondary irrigation water from private canal companies, which is untreated, much cheaper, and billed as a flat seasonal fee rather than by volume.
Secondary irrigation water in Millcreek is seasonal, usually turned on in late April or early May and shut off by mid-October. Culinary water systems follow freeze risk instead of supply shutoffs. Freezing temperatures typically arrive in late October, so sprinkler systems should be winterized by early October. Spring turn-ons are safest in late April, when overnight freezes are no longer common and state watering rules allow irrigation again.
Millcreek does not enforce strict odd-even or day-of-week watering schedules. However, the city strongly encourages watering during cooler hours, ideally before 8:00 AM or after 8:00 PM, to reduce evaporation. Utah state law prohibits lawn watering from October 1 through April 25. Irrigation runoff onto sidewalks or roads is not allowed, so sprinkler systems should be adjusted to water lawns only.
Millcreek promotes state and regional water-saving rebates rather than offering city-specific programs. Homeowners can receive about $2–$3 per square foot for removing lawn and installing water-wise landscaping through Utah Water Savers programs. Additional rebates are available for smart irrigation controllers, efficient sprinkler nozzles, and drip systems. Commercial properties and HOAs may qualify for similar incentives through their water provider’s conservation programs.
In Millcreek, irrigation systems connected to culinary water must have a code-approved backflow preventer, typically a reduced pressure (RPZ) assembly. This device protects the drinking water supply from contamination and must be tested annually. Secondary irrigation systems generally do not require backflow preventers unless they are directly connected to culinary water, which is uncommon. Proper backflow installation is required for both residential and commercial sprinkler systems.

The best time to turn on your sprinklers is usually between April 15 - May 15, once there is no more risk of freezing temperatures. The best time to turn them off is between September 15 - October 15, before freezing temperatures return. Many homeowners make the mistake of turning sprinklers on too early and running them too late, thinking this is necessary to keep their grass alive. Utah's cold-season grass is more resilient than most people think, so be cautious when choosing to run your sprinklers.
