blow out port for compressor

I am in the process of fixing things that were done wrong by a local irrigation installer. They installed a dual backflow

preverter in the line which is code in my area. The problem is there is nowhere to hook a compressor to so I can blow out the lines for winterization. What would be my best option for adding this? Is there a fitting I can install that I can connnect a quick coupler so the lines can be blown out? Thanks
