But even after a proper blowout, winter has a way of testing pipes, fittings, and valves (thanks, freeze-thaw cycles). At Spartan Irrigation, we always tell homeowners: winterization is step one; staying alert is step two. Here are four signs a winter water leak might be creeping in, along with what to do next.
