I think it is a good idea to have an ongoing maintenance service with a company who will respond quickly when you have a leak, and who will make small repairs for a nominal charge, especially if you are a snowbird. If you don't, it may be difficult to get someone to come out and they may charge a few hundred dollars for a minor repair. Massey is not the best company, but I only pay them $40 per quarter to check the system, and when I have a leak, they're respond quickly, and will often repair a small leak for free. When you have a geyser in your yard because of a broken sprinkler, you don't want to be shopping around for a sprinkler company.
