New systems in Holly
Planning a system for a Holly lot.
A sprinkler design is mostly arithmetic: how much water the source can deliver, how much each head needs, and how the ground takes it in. Around Holly, each of those answers can change from one road to the next.
On a private well
Most of the township runs on private wells, and a well's flow in gallons per minute caps how many heads can run at once. We measure it first and size every zone to it, so the last head on the line still pops up and throws its full distance.
On village water
Village homes draw from four village wells through three water towers and booster stations, so your pressure is set by that system and your meter, not by a pump. We read the pressure at the house before choosing nozzles, and fit a pressure vacuum breaker to protect the supply.
Hills, sand and loam
Glacial hills, sandy outwash and loam all show up in the township's soil mapping, sometimes on a single lot. We zone by slope and sun as well as by area: a sandy south slope and a shaded loamy flat do not belong on the same valve.
Lots that keep their woods
The township's master plan describes the Great Lakes Community, first platted in the 1930s, as an up-north lakefront area, and discourages broad sodded fronts in new building there. A smaller lawn zone with drip for the beds suits that kind of lot.
What you get
A new system, from plan to first run.
Every install follows the same order, so the system matches the water you have and is set up to water the whole yard evenly.
- Water measured
Pressure and flow checked at the supply, city or well, before anything is laid out.
- Head to head layout
Every head placed to reach the next, with part circles along the edges.
- Zoned by sun and plants
Sunny lawn, shade and beds on separate zones, sprays and rotors never mixed.
- Backflow device
A pressure vacuum breaker at least 12 inches above the highest head.
- Narrow trench
Pipe 6 to 12 inches down in a narrow trench, and valves boxed at grade.
- Controller set
A program for each zone, every head aimed, and a walkthrough before we leave.
Try it
Head to head, or it shows.
A system laid out so every head throws to the next one waters evenly. Switch to "before" to see what a short throw or a missing head does.
- Knocked sideways. Watering the driveway, not the lawn.
- Clogged nozzle. Falls short, so the middle goes brown.
- Sunk head. The turf grew over it and blocks the spray.
- Broken head. No spray, just a puddle and a water bill.
In Holly
From the first walk to the first run.
It starts with a walk around the yard with you. We find the water source, measure flow and pressure, note the slopes, the beds and the shade, and sketch the zones. You see the layout and what it takes before any digging.
Our compact stand-on trencher cuts a narrow trench for the lateral pipe, usually 6 to 12 inches down, instead of opening wide ditches across the lawn. Then the heads go in, the valves get wired to the controller, and every zone is run and aimed before we call it finished.

Misty’s did some repair work at a fair price. Staff was very pleasant, on time and cleaned up well in addition to excellent communication. Will use them in the future for any sprinkler system needs without it a doubt!
Misty’s Irrigation came out to repair and inspect our lawn irrigation system and did a great job. Very knowledgeable, professional, and just great people to work with. It’s always nice being able to support a local Fenton business, especially when they provide this kind of service. Highly recommend!
Questions
What people ask about a new system in Holly.
If yours is not here, call or text (810) 423-9513.
Do you install new sprinkler systems in Holly?
Yes. Misty's lays out and installs new systems, and adds zones to existing ones, in the village and across the township. It starts with a walk around the yard and a look at the water source. Call or text (810) 423-9513 to set that up.
Can a new sprinkler system run off my house well?
Usually, if it is designed for the well. We measure how many gallons a minute the well delivers and keep each zone under that, with room left for the house. Then the zones run at hours when nobody is showering or doing laundry. Weak zones on a well usually come from a layout drawn for city pressure and hung on a pump that cannot keep up.
Should I drill a separate well just for the sprinklers?
Sometimes, on a big lawn or with a weak house well. Oakland County's health division treats a well for lawn watering as an irrigation well, a separate type from a drinking water well, with its own paper permit application. A well driller handles that part. We design the system around whatever flow the new well produces.
Our well water stains. Does that change the design?
Yes. We keep throws off the siding, walks and fence from the start, rather than aiming around them later. We can also plan a Rid-O-Rust feed into the system at install, which is simpler than adding it afterward.
How torn up will the lawn be?
The trencher cuts a narrow slot for the pipe, and the soil goes back into it. Heads and valve boxes need small holes. Expect a visible seam across the lawn for a while, not open trenches or a yard of bare dirt.
