Drip Irrigation Kit for Vegetable Gardens Kits Description This kit contains everything you will need to go from hose bibb (faucet) and into to your vegetable garden. The number of plants that can be watered with each kit is an estimate based on the total number of drip emitters provided in the kit, both individually and within the emitter tubing. Larger plants should get two drip emitters. If you want to automate your drip system, a Hose Timer can be purchased separately. Maximum Flow Rate Required when kit is fully installed (all drippers & soaker hose): Medium Kit: 75 gph Installation: Overview You will attach a Filter, Pressure Regulator, Hose Vacuum Breaker and Direct-Loc Swivel Adapter to the faucet or garden hose. The supply line is 1/2” Solid Drip Tubing and is run into the garden. Small plants will get one 1/2 gph drip emitter. Larger plants (or vegetables requiring more water) should get two 1/2 gph emitters. We’ve included stakes for the 1/4” and 1/2” tubing. Installation: Step-by-Step Roll the tubing out in the sun 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 1. Screw the Filter (A4-MINI) onto the faucet. Note: If you have purchased an optional Hose End Timer screw it onto the faucet first. Then attach the Filter to the Hose End Timer.
2. Screw the Pressure Regulator (DD-HPR25) onto the Filter.
3. Screw the Direct-Loc Swivel Adapter (DL-FHS600) onto the Hose Vacuum Breaker. Step Two: From the Hose Bibb to the Vegetable Garden 1. Attach 1/2” Drip Tubing (DD-DH700) to the 1/2” swivel adapter and run it to the vegetable garden.
2. Use 1/2” Direct-Loc Elbows (DL-L600) to make 90 degree turns and 1/2” Direct-Loc Tees (DL-T600) to create lateral lines as needed.
3. Add Direct-Loc Threaded End Caps (DL-EC600) to the ends of 1/2” drip tubing. Leave the caps off for flushing. Step Three: Installing Drip Emitters 1. Run the 1/2” drip tubing as close to the plants as possible.
2. Secure the drip tubing in place with 6” Wire Stakes (TLS6).
3. At each plant use the hole punch (DD-KP) to poke a hole in the 1/2” tubing and insert a 1/4” barbed elbow (DD-L250) or 1/4” barbed connector (DD-C250).
4. Cut a length of tubing that will run from the 1/4” barbed fitting to the plant and push it over the end of the barbed fitting.
5. Stake the 1/4” tubing in place with a Micro Tubing Holder Stake (DD-S2). Complete this step for each plant before moving on to the next step. Turn on the water and FLUSH THE LINE until all lines are clear of debris. Replace the 1/2” threaded end caps at the ends of the 1/2” drip tubing.
6. After flushing the lines, insert a Pressure Compensating Emitter (DD-SPCV05) into
each micro tube. NOTE: The barb with the sharper point goes into the end of the tubing.
7. 1/4” Connectors can also 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.
8. Goof Plugs (DD-GP) are used to plug holes in 1/2" drip poly tubing or cap off 1/4" micro tubing.
9. The Direct-Loc Coupling (DL-C600) is used to connect 1/2" solid drip tubing or for repairs in 1/2” tubing that goof plugs can’t handle.
10. Turn on your system and check each emitter for water output. The idea is for each plant to receive enough water during the same time period. Step Four: Installing Drip Emitter Tubing Drip Emitter tubing has emitters inside the tubing at set intervals. It is often used for row crops and raised beds. For shorter rows and smaller planting areas, use 1/4” drip emitter tubing. The maximum run length for this 1/4” drip emitter tubing is 33 linear feet. 1/4” Drip Emitter Tubing (DD-DET250-06-100) 1. Run 1/2” solid tubing along one side of the area to be watered and cap it off with a Direct-Loc End Cap (DL-EC600).
2. Poke a hole in the solid tubing and insert a 1/4" connector or 1/4" elbow. For even coverage in a planter box, we recomend spacing the rows of drip emitter tubing 10" - 12" apart.
3. Connect the 1/4” drip emitter tubing to the barbed fitting. Tip: Cut every other length of drip emitter tubing so that the emitters are staggered, forming a triangle pattern. This provides better coverage.
4. Insert a Goof Plug (DD-GP) into the end of the 1/4” drip emitter tubing. You have extra goof plugs to cap off additional sections of 1/4” tubing and plug holes in 1/2” drip tubing (if needed).
5. Secure the drip emitter tubing in place with 6” Wire Stakes (TLS6). Purchase Here: Maintenance Tips: WINTERIZING: For instructions click here For more information on Drip Irrigation Design and Installation click here Ref 5260 |
