SprinklerRust Stains

Orange streaks on concrete and walls come from the water, not the dirt.

Where it comes from

Many Florida irrigation systems run on well water that's high in iron. Every time the sprinklers hit the driveway, sidewalk, or wall, they leave a little iron behind. It builds up into orange stains.

Why pressure doesn't fix it

Rust is a stain inside the concrete, not dirt on top of it. More pressure just scars the surface. Rust needs a cleaner made to dissolve it, followed by a rinse.

Keeping it from coming back

Adjust heads that spray onto concrete and walls. Some homeowners add a rust filter or treatment to the irrigation system. Without a fix at the source, the stains will come back.
