It is designed to water groups of flower pots, planter boxes, and hanging baskets. The number of containers is an estimate based on each container receiving one drip emitter. Larger containers should get two drip emitters. If you want to automate your drip system, a Hose End Timer can be purchased separately. Maximum Flow Rate Required when kit is fully installed (all drippers): Small Kit: 5 gph, Medium Kit: 15 gpm Installation: Overview You will attach a Filter, Pressure Regulator and a Hose Vacuum Breaker, to the faucet or garden hose. The supply line is 1/4” Solid Drip Tubing and is run to each container. Small containers (around 10”) will get one drip emitter and stake. Containers over 10” should get two drip emitters. We’ve included deck mounting clips for the tubing and 1/4” flow control valves for each container so that you can fine-tune (or shut off) the water flow to individual containers. Installation: Step-by-Step Roll the tubing out near the containers to soften. Weigh it down and let the sun heat the tubing. This will make it easier to work with. Step one: Connecting to the Hose Bibb - If you purchased the optional Hose End Timer screw it on before the filter.
- Screw the Filter (A4-MINI) onto the optional timer or directly on the faucet.
- Screw the Regulator (DD-HPR25-HQ) onto the Filter.
- Screw the Hose Vacuum Breaker onto the Pressure Regulator.
- Screw the 1/4” Swivel Adapter (NDS-SAH) onto the Vacuum Breaker.
Step Two: From the Hose Bibb to the Containers 1. Attach the 1/4” Drip Tubing (DD-DH250) to the 1/4” swivel adapter and run it close to the containers.
2. The 1/4” mounting clips (DD-MC250B) will allow you to nail down the 1/4” tubing to decking fascia, underpinning, posts etc. so that it is safely tucked away. At each container, cut the tubing with scissors and insert a tee so that it points toward the top of the container. Step Three: Watering Each Container 1. Cut a length of tubing that will run from the 1/4 barbed tee to the middle of the container. Turn on the water and FLUSH THE LINE until all lines are clear of debris.
2. Press the 1/4” tubing into the groove of the Pressure Compensated Dripper on Stake (DIG 06-055) and push the stake into the soil next to the plant.Use DD-SR360S Adjustable Flow Bubblers for Larger Pots or plants that need a wider coverage of water. Medium Kit Only.
3. Use a Goof Plug (DD-GP) to cap off the end of the 1/4” tubing. You have extra goof plugs to cap off additional sections of 1/4” tubing (if needed).
4. 1/4” Connectors (DD-C250) can be used to connect lengths of 1/4” tubing. Damaged tubing can be repaired by making clean cuts and then connecting with a 1/4” connector.
5. Turn on your system and check each pot for water output. Purchase Here: Maintenance Tips WINTERIZING for instruction click here For more information on Drip Irrigation Design and Installation click here Ref 5205 |
