Ideal for commercial applications, the 3/4 in. Dura Flo™ Heavy-duty Dripline offers durability with a flexible design with unique spacing configurations of pressure-compensating (PC) emitters. Also known as emitter tubing.
Key Features
Pressure compensating emitters are grouped in threes; groupings are 6 in. apart
The pressure-compensating dripline delivers a steady, uniform amount of water even if there are changes in pressure, elevation, or length of dripline used
Self-cleaning emitters are designed to flush out particles in the water to help prevent clogging
Poly tubing is constructed using a layering method for durability: the outer and inner layers are made of 100% virgin content; the middle layer is composed of recycled content
Roll is shrink-wrapped for easy handling and to ensure roll stays together as product is dispensed
Applications
Delivers a steady flow of water along the entire line even if the pressure changes; self-cleaning emitters are spaced evenly apart
Ideal for watering closely spaced plants, hedges, vegetable gardens, planter boxes, and new plantings of ground cover; its flexibility also works as a watering ring for large pots and containers, and makes loops around large trees
As part of a complete drip irrigation system, the dripline delivers water along the entire line, and each of the pressure-compensating emitters distributes water steadily even if the pressure changes
Installation & Maintenance
Use tubing adapter to connect to water source
Use Smart Loc™ multidiameter fittings to connect sections of dripline together, make bends, or add a tee intersection
Periodically check for leaks or damage and replace or repair as needed; recommended operating pressure is up to 50 PSI; for areas with freezing temperatures, winterize by using an air compressor to evacuate lines with air to remove water
Materials & Sustainability
Tubing made of polyethylene
Emitters made of polyethylene and silicone
Made of domestic and imported materials
Drip irrigation can reduce water usage by up to 70% compared to conventional sprinkler irrigation when used properly; for most drip irrigation products, water is applied precisely and at the rate the soil can accept it to prevent runoff and erosion
