Is Your Irrigation Pump Ready for Summer? Must-Do Maintenance in May

23 May Is Your Irrigation Pump Ready for Summer? Must-Do Maintenance in May

As temperatures rise in the Magic Valley, May marks the beginning of peak irrigation season for farmers and homeowners alike.

Whether you’re watering crops in Rupert or keeping a lawn green in Twin Falls, your irrigation system depends on a properly functioning well pump. Now is the perfect time to make sure your irrigation pump is ready for the demands of summer.

Well pumps used for irrigation work harder and longer than household pumps, especially in agricultural zones like Jerome, Heyburn, and Gooding. Over time, sediment buildup, motor wear, or electrical issues can reduce performance or cause a complete system failure—often at the worst possible time.

Key irrigation pump maintenance tips for May:

• Inspect for leaks in pipes and fittings.

• Clean intake screens and filters to prevent clogs.

• Check pressure output to ensure even water distribution.

• Test electrical components and connections.
