  • Drip Tape needs 6 PSI To work properly.    More than 12 PSI will cause drip tape to split!   We recommend our PR-STAKE to measure pressure before going to drip tape. 
  •  
  • Pressure Regulators are a must to reduce pressure on any irrigation system and keep it in a safe zone.  (Use a 10 PSI or 12 PSI and choose based on your Flow)

FAQ:  How much drip tape can I run at one time on a garden hose?    How much water is this putting out?

The Flow of your drip tape is the 3rd set of numbers in the Model #.  This number is stated in GPM per every 100' of tape that you run.

EXAMPLE:  EA5081245-7500   This tape puts out .45 gpm for every 100 feet that you run.   OR  4.5 gpm for every 1,000' of tape that you run.

TRY IT :     --- I have 12 gpm of water coming out of your garden hose at the field/plot.   Therefore, I can run 2,666 feet of drip tape at one time.  (MATH: 12 divided by .45= 26.666   x 100 feet = 2,666 feet)

--- I have 14 gpm of water  "   "    " ...    Therefore, I can run 3,111 feet of drip tape at one time.


Take your Drip Tape's Flow  (.22, .34, .45, .67, 1.34 and divide it into your GPM.  Multiply that # x 100 feet.

How do you figure your GPM ?   Take your garden hose close to your garden plot or field.  Run it for approx 2 minutes.   

Then time yourself filling up a 5 gallon bucket.  How long did it take? 30 seconds would mean you roughly have 10 gpm.


 

Lay with Stripes Up  (The blue-stripe shows the side of the Drip Tape that has the slits.  You want the slits/drippers face up.  If any trash happens to enter the drip tape, it is easy to stop up slits /drippers that are face down.  It is harder to push the trash upwards... so placing the drippers face up helps to prevent clogging.)

SPACINGS AVAILABLE :  8", 12", 18", 24"    (Use Pull Down Arrow)

    Joe,
    It seems that every time I turn on the TV, there's an ad for a sleep number bed. These beds apparently give you a good night's sleep. My sleep number is 1-800- 345-DRIP.

    Even with the severity of the drought, I sleep good each night.

    Thank you for helping us with another excellent crop, photos enclosed.

    Regards, Ken

    The 10 mil drip tape is good for my heavy soil. I plant watermelons and use the 12" spacing. They like the regular waterings but I don't use plastic (yet) so the 10 mil is good for my field. Thanks Berry Hill for the fast shipment!
