Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
A compressed air connection helps to remove all water from your irrigation pipes. This prevents any remaining water from freezing and damaging the pipes. With a compressor and a suitable compressed air adapter, you can carry out the winterization quickly and efficiently. This method is particularly recommended for underground irrigation systems. It offers a reliable solution for the long-term functionality of your irrigation system.
Our range includes various compressed air adapters that are compatible with standard compressors. They have standard plug-in nipples for easy connection and are made of robust material. This makes them suitable for both private and commercial use. We also offer sets with all the necessary components for winterizing. These items are specifically designed for the requirements of modern irrigation systems.
Yes, with a compressor and a suitable compressed air connection, you can do the winter draining of your irrigation system yourself. Simply connect the adapter to the compressor and the irrigation system. Let the air flow through the lines until no more water comes out. This method is user-friendly and saves you time and money. Make sure that all residual water is completely removed.
You can use standard compressors with an operating pressure of 6 to 10 bar. It is important that the compressor has a suitable connection for the compressed air adapter. Our products are universally applicable and fit common models. The hose connection should also be equipped with a quick-release coupling to ensure easy handling.
The winter emptying should be carried out before the first days of frost. Repeat the process if there is still residual water in the pipes after the first emptying. Regular checking provides additional security. These measures prevent frost damage and ensure that your system is ready for use in the garden again in spring.
Yes, our compressed air adapters can be used universally and are compatible with drip pipes, sprinklers and main lines. They can be easily integrated into existing systems and are also suitable for Plug&Rain® components. With the right components, blowing out your lines is particularly efficient.
Frost damage can be avoided by blowing out the water pipes in good time using a compressed air connection. To do this, it is important to completely empty the irrigation system before the first sub-zero temperatures of winter. Using a compressor with an operating pressure of 6 to 10 bar is particularly effective. Additional measures such as shutting off the main water supply and using quick couplings make winterizing easier. These steps ensure that your system remains frost-free.
Residual water in the pipes of your irrigation system can freeze in frosty conditions and burst the pipe walls. Hidden water residues in PVC pipes or underground pipes are particularly dangerous. Winterizing with a compressed air connection reliably removes these residual amounts. This way you can avoid expensive repairs or replacing damaged components. Regular checks during the winter months also ensure safety.

Planning and product selection: How to choose the right compressed air connection
Choosing the right compressed air connection is crucial for the efficiency of your winter emptying and for winterizing your irrigation system. Our products are compatible with common compressors and are made of high-quality materials that guarantee a long service life. Particularly practical are compressed air adapters with standard plug-in nipples, which enable a quick connection between the compressor and the irrigation system.
Thanks to Plug&Rain® technology, the adapters can be seamlessly integrated into existing irrigation systems. For larger systems, we offer sets that contain all the necessary components. With our range, you can ensure that your pipes are completely drained and frost damage doesn't stand a chance.
Winterizing: Important steps to secure your system
Before winter sets in, it is crucial to take some important steps to secure your irrigation system. Freezing and sub-zero temperatures can cause significant damage to your system if it is not properly prepared. Here are some essential measures you should take:
- Inspection of the irrigation system: Check your irrigation system for any damage or leaks. Repair these before winter begins to ensure that your system is in perfect condition.
- Draining the water: Remove the water from your system to prevent frost damage. This is especially important for underground piping and PVC pipes, which can easily be damaged by frost.
- Inspecting the pipes: Check your pipes and PVC pipes for any damage or cracks. Replace damaged parts to ensure the integrity of your system.
- Shutting down your irrigation system: Make sure to properly shut down your irrigation system before winter sets in. This will prevent water from remaining in the lines and freezing.
Taking these preparatory steps will ensure that your irrigation system is winterized and prevent frost damage.
Installation and operation: Winterizing your irrigation system is easy
Winterizing your irrigation system with a compressed air connection is easy and effective. Connect the adapter to the compressor and the main line of your system. Let the compressed air flow through the lines at an operating pressure of 6 to 10 bar until no more water comes out. Repeat the process if necessary to ensure that all the last traces of water are removed.
Our adapters are designed to guarantee a tight connection and allow air to flow evenly through the system. This ensures reliable drainage. With our products, you can winterize your irrigation system and ensure that it is ready to use again in spring. Trust in the quality of DVS irrigation and protect your irrigation from frost damage.
Avoid frost damage: How to winterize your irrigation system
Frost damage is one of the most common causes of defective irrigation systems. To protect your system reliably, a thorough winter emptying is essential. Start by shutting off the main water supply and open all drainage valves to drain coarse water. However, the crucial step is to blow out the lines with a compressed air connection.
A compressor with a quick-connect coupling ensures that the air flows evenly through the pipes and that even hidden water residues are removed. Particularly sensitive components such as sprinklers and drip pipes benefit from this method. For larger systems, we recommend repeating the process several times. Make sure that all measures are completed before the first sub-zero temperatures of winter set in to avoid frost damage.
Winterization made easy: tips and tricks for optimal draining
Winterizing your irrigation system doesn't have to be complicated or time-consuming. With the right accessories, such as a compressed air adapter and a powerful compressor, you can drain your system in no time. Connect the adapter to the main line and let the air flow through the system at a pressure of 6 to 10 bar. Watch the airflow and repeat the process until no more water comes out.
For particularly effective winterization, we recommend blowing out the lines in several sections. This ensures that no water remains, even in long or branched systems. If you are unsure which components or methods are suitable for your system, our product information and customer service will be happy to help. With the right preparation, your system will be safely protected from frost damage and your garden will be protected from winter damage.
