From the beginning to the end of tubing runs, a pressure-compensating emitter with a flow rate of 0 gallons per hour delivers the same uniform flow rate.

Slow watering allows the soil to absorb more water in the root zone of the plants.

Use with 1/4" drip tubing or insert into 1/2" or larger drip tubing for a self-piercing design.

Clogging is less likely due to the large water passages and self-flushing action.

Long-lasting UV and chemical-resistant materials are used in the construction of this product.

There are (5) 5 in a plastic bag. dripper/emitters with a flow rate of 0 gallons per hour

Dripline in the landscape Water emitters with a flow rate of 0.5 GPH

Individual plants should be watered more frequently.

Expanding and adding to an existing line is simple and straightforward.

Ideal for root systems that are susceptible to damage.

Questions & Answers

The difuser cap is installed in what way and where. ?

Plug your 1/4-inch hose into a 1/2-inch hose with this tool.

Will the dripper's flow rate be 5 or 2 gph if I use a 5 gph emitter with a 2 gph dripper? 221psi?

These emitters are designed for 25 psi; 200 psi will rip them apart; once they're running at the right pressure, don't stack them because the output pressure from one dripper won't be enough for a second. I'm guessing you're using layered to deal with your high stress levels. It's best to use the GPH you want at each drop point; emitters are available for a variety of GPH.

Is it possible to use it as part of a gravity-fed irrigation system? With a 3- barrel with a height of six feet ?

With a 3- You do not require a foot barrel. Simply perforate the hose and you're good to go.

The "diffuser" is included in the package. Was this ever used, and if so, what was it for? I thought I'd be able to get some spray out of a quarter tube, but I couldn't even get it attached to the tube?

I'm in agreement with you. Although it appears to be a nice idea,

It's fairly accurate, but it's a little noisy

4/5

These drip emitters are being used to control the flow rate of my aquarium's water change system. The 5 gph model is very accurate, allowing for a wide range of pressures to be compensated for. br>br>When the emitter is turned on, it emits a static noise. To muffle the noise, I may have to put it away in the cabinet.

They look good, but they clog

3/5

I like how much water they hold, but after a few years, they clog up, and we have to replace some of them because we can't clean them out.

It appears to have no effect on the flow of water

3/5

It appears to have no effect on the flow of water. I assumed the first one was broken, so I tried the second one and got the same result: water simply "shoots" out of the pipe; it may be designed for a different purpose, but it is not "dripping. ".

Prime isn't Prime; in this case, Prime will get you free and fast shipping, but God help you if you want to return the item

3/5

There is a fee of $99 for returns. Given that two postage stamps would cover the return fair, Amazon's price is a little high. This product did a fantastic job of covering my Florida garden.

It looks more like a fire hydrant than a drip emitter

3/5

I bought this expecting a small stream of water to come out of the emitter because it is 5 GPH, but instead it shoots straight up several feet into the air. When your garden hose is set to jet, you'll be the king of the world. I'm afraid I won't be able to use these as drip lines.

This is a fantastic bundle

5/5

I use diffusers on all of my emitters, but they're especially important for the higher-powered ones. It's convenient that these are packaged together because they have the same flow rate (5 GPH).

It really works

5/5

It was necessary to adjust the amount of water required by some of our growing plants. This is an excellent choice. It took about 5 minutes to simply replace the existing ones.
