Know before you buy
Yes, the flexible polyethylene construction is specifically designed to bend and conform to curved or narrow landscape beds without kinking.
This dripline operates effectively within a pressure range of 8.5 to 60 PSI. If your water source exceeds this, you should install a pressure regulator to prevent damage.
The brown color is designed to blend discreetly into soil and mulch, making it much less noticeable than standard black irrigation tubing once installed.
Yes, because the water is delivered directly to the soil surface rather than sprayed into the air, it is an excellent choice for windy locations where traditional sprinklers would suffer from evaporation or drift.
Each emitter is rated for a flow rate of 0.9 gallons per hour (GPH), providing a consistent and precise watering rate across the entire 100-foot length.
Absolutely. The 12-inch emitter spacing makes it versatile enough to provide uniform coverage for both dense ground cover plantings and individual shrub beds.
