About Zumbro Mist
Owner Mitchell Gray
Hi! I’m Mitchell Gray, but you can call me Mitch. I have worked in the lawn sprinkler industry for over 10 years. I’ve always had an aptitude for putting things together and making them work. I take pride in my work and enjoy the satisfaction of helping a home owner enjoy a beautiful lawn or garden.
I started this business because I wanted to provide a personal, real value, service to customers. What isolates me from competitors is that it will always be me that comes out to service your irrigation system. I am not going to be the biggest sprinkler company in the area, but a company that people will trust and rely on for their sprinkler needs. That’s why I guarantee my work and a promise to have the job done in less than 48 hours of the call.
So, if you are looking for someone for Spring Startups, Fall Winterizations, General Repairs or your Back Flow tested at a reasonable price, I’m the guy to call. Service calls are affordable and usually take less than an hour.
​
I service all types of irrigation systems including Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro, Irritrol, Wilkins, Crestline, Febco and Watts.

Spring Start Up
A spring start-up is an important part of maintaining your sprinkler system. It should be more than just turning on the water. The adjustments and settings in the spring will determine the performance of the system throughout the season. Here is a list of what Zumbro Mist Sprinklers will do during a spring start-up:
• Setting the controller
• Adjust the controller to coincide with the season
• Turn on the water to the system
• Run and adjust heads as needed
• Test the system
• Check for leaks and other problems
• Answer any questions the homeowner may have
• Any repairs needed or recommended will be discussed with the homeowner before any work is performed
Sprinkler Repair
A broken head replaced or needing adjustment.​
Fix a zone that is staying on or will not start.
Add or move sprinklers because you recently
did some landscaping.​
Fix a broken backflow preventer on side of your house.​
Put in a new modern controller with WiFi capabilities.​
Fix or add a rain sensor.
Backflow Testing
According to the latest Minnesota State Plumbing Code, all homeowners and businesses with testable backflow devices are required to have them tested annually. The most common testable backflow device at a residential home is a Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVB), which is found on nearly every residential irrigation system.
Winterization
An essential service for your lawn irrigation system in our area is to have it professionally winterized. We blow out all the water to prevent ruptures and maintain tight seals during the cold winter months. With a high capacity air compressor, I go through the zones twice making sure all the water is out of the pipes.
