Yes, but only at the end of the tubing, rather than on the side as with half-inch tubing.
The t- In the hose, there is a fitting that connects them.
No, there's already water coming out of a soaker hose.
To get it below 35 psi, you'll need to use a pressure reducing fitting. If there was too much pressure on the drip system, it would break.

These are very inexpensive irrigation drippers, and while the majority of them work, about three out of every ten are either too sensitive to adjustments or completely defective. I've used about 40 of them so far, and the ones that work are holding up well. Adjusting them is a pain in the neck compared to rainbird drippers because they are stiff to turn. If you are installing a NEW LINE, make sure to close the drippers all the way, then open it ONE FULL TURN, then adjust CLOSEST to the valve working your way to the very end of the line, or jump on the ones that are gushing out and adjust each one until you get the desired flow. With just a few clicks, some of these drippers will gush our water, so the trick is to turn it all the way up and then dial it back down. They are extremely inexpensive in comparison to Rainbird, which costs $. These are a good buy at 32 cents per piece. Although it's a pain to get it right the first time, once it's done, all you have to do now is adjust the duration. If you believe it is faulty, simply discard it and replace it. This will save you time and headache. You have three more for a total of $0. 08 cents. Good luck, and I hope this review has been of assistance.
These will be used in two raised bed gardens, each measuring 6x12 feet. All of my emitters are directly plugged into the 1/2" line instead of 1/4" tubing, and there are no issues. On the inlet side of a Y connector, I have a 25psi regulator and backflow preventer, and each bed is connected to one of the Y's legs. The hose bib has a pressure of 35 to 40 pounds per square inch. I don't get the maximum distance because of the distance to the farthest bed, but there's still enough flow to water the entire garden in 15 minutes. 20 min. br>br>Creative+ paraphrase: May 2019. Over 400 of these emitters have now been ordered and installed. I had two 6x12 raised beds last year, and now I have five 4x12 and ten 4x4 raised beds this year. I have 33 emitters on my 4x12's and 9 on my 4x4. As others have stated, getting them to look the way you want them takes some effort, but the 30 minutes I spent doing so were well spent! Unless the water pressure changes a lot after they've been adjusted, everything should be fine.
This is a great product that does exactly what it says it will. The irrigation tube is plugged in by the barb, and the water is dispersed by the red cap. By twisting the red cap, you can control the rate at which the water flows out. This is a good idea in theory, and it basically works.
- However - br>If you even lightly touch this after installation, the red cap will most likely move (by a very small amount) and the watering rate will change. br>br>As a result - If your requirements are such that you can install it, set the watering level, and then forget about it - go for it. It's a fantastic piece of writing. However, if you're in the same boat as me - If you're going to be disturbing it (say, by plucking suckers or weeds from the bed), this is probably not the best option.
Although the dripper heads made of black plastic are significantly more expensive, I continue to use them because I require so many. However, keep in mind that these red caps deteriorate in the sun and will dry out and break after a few seasons. Mulch protects them from the elements and extends their life. I continue to purchase them because I can replace the cap rather than removing and replacing the drippers. (The black caps aren't going to fit these drippers' bodies, so it's either one or the other. ).
Despite some reviews claiming that getting them "in sync" for water flow is difficult, I find these drippers to be excellent. I have a lot of them and they work fine; however, they emit a LOT of water, so I have to turn them almost to the stop/shutoff position. I haven't had any of the issues that other reviewers have mentioned, such as having to make multiple adjustments when using several in a row; it's a good product.
These emitters were used to replace older, ineffective, or non-functional emitters. emitters that work I had a few emitters that wouldn't open or watered where I didn't want them to. It was simple to remove the offending emitter and replace it with the same hole. These emitters are inexpensive and simply push into the existing hole in the irrigation line; I have a special gardening weed removal tool that works great for removing the old emitter. Just make sure to slightly open the emitter before installing it, and they'll be very easy to adjust to get the right flow.
I've had them for months, and they've been in full sun all day every day in Southern California. There are no issues. They still adjust perfectly and are just as good as the ones I paid 10 times the price for locally. Great parts that do what they're supposed to.
I bought a bunch of these because I thought the design was brilliant. "Adjustable Emitters",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, The issue is as follows: There's a lot of variation here. "5-minute" is a setting. If you click "Open" on 100 of them, you'll get roughly 50 different outcomes. These might come in handy in s- e software applications In the long run, however, the excessive amount of time spent 'fiddling' with these to get them all 'in-tune' is not worth it. For my purposes,'sync' is far too much. Unfortunately, I'm now stuck with something that isn't very useful for my purposes. It's possible it worked. If I were dripping a backyard garden, it would look great, but I'm trying to drip a line of trees.
