Irrigation information built for Michigan properties

Irrigation systems in Southeast Michigan can be supplied by city water, private wells, booster pumps, or lake-fed pump systems. Each system type has different components, failure points, seasonal requirements, and repair procedures.

The Hunter HydroTech Knowledge Center explains these systems using practical information gathered from residential and commercial irrigation work throughout Macomb, Oakland, Wayne, St. Clair, and surrounding Michigan counties.
