The Rainbarrel Man - Garden Irrigation System

The Garden Irrigation System

This 110 Gal. system uses a 5/8 inch dia. hose connection with a brass spigot. The top drum is mounted on a 54 inch high stand which gives the height needed to produce the 2 psi required to operate the drip irrigation kit when attached. The total minimum height needed is 94 inches from the bottom of the second elbow (on side of a one story house) to ground level. If you use all the material in the kit (150 emitters total) it will water a 100 sq. ft. vegetable garden (ten - 10 foot rows or five - 20 foot rows). Without the kit the system will produce 10 Gpm, with it attached that figure will be greatly reduced to less than 1/2 GPM.

$360.00 Includes: Plastic Drums (non-painted), Stand, Drip Kit, Plumbing, by-pass hose, Watersaver Diverter and setup instructions.

The drip irrigation kit includes:

1- Female hose begining

1-100 foot roll main line tubing

1-Yellow handle punch

1-100 foot roll of T-tape

Benefits of watering with drip irrigation:

Uses 50% less water

Delivers water directly to the root zone

Reduces evaporation and run-off

Does not wash off nutrients, protectants or pollen

Saves time, wasted on hand watering

Makes gardening much more enjoyable

Special note: This system should be drained with spigot and valves in the open position, in preparation for a cold snap.
