Rain Bird SW10-30PS Drip Emitter, 1/4", 30-Pack

I like the press in. They seem to work well. They did get clogged at first use do to debris in my supply line, but they cleared easily by popping them out and holding them reverse in the water stream, then popping them back in.

Works as expected

Great irrigation product

They work fine, but they stop up from time to time so keep an eye on each one. They can be cleaned but you need to remove them so keep plenty of spares.

We have about 120 wine grape vines in six 70ft. rows on our Michigan Upper Peninsula farm. They are a mix of 1, 2 and 3 yr. olds. It's a hobby crop and we are trying to be cost and time efficient because we both work full time. Our first watering system was simply runs of soaker hose which proved unsatisfactory for a variety of reasons. We stumbled upon the Rain Bird drip irrigation system while wandering around at Menard's. The 1/2" main water line was quite reasonably priced at $30 something for 500 ft and the 1/4 tubing also at $8 for 100ft. I made my own ground staples out of 12ga vineyard wire) The whole system is well designed and very easy to install. Each of 120 vines required a certain amount of fiddling to get the tubing aimed where you want it but zip tying them to the stakes turned out to be the ticket. I am very impressed with the flexibility and the accurate delivery. We used these 1gph emitters, pierced directly into the main line and 1 foot of small tubing to aim the drip where it's needed. A little bit of trial and error and we discovered some necessary alterations in our plan, but nothing that really set us back---it was all quite logical once we got started with the installation. The whole system is run through a standard digital water timer---the kind used in-line with a garden hose. Pushing the emitters into the hose requires some effort and I'm glad I bought the special tool made for it---but I also found it useful to make a backing block out of a chunk of 2x4 to make that job even easier. Just slide the block under the main hose into the channel and the hose is supported and kept from flattening out as you easily poke that little guy in---(on the end of the block I cut a slot to make pushing in the ground staples easier) see the pictures. On the whole I'm very satisfied and we plan to install another system for our 3 big raised bed gardens. I recommend this system for DIYers and anyone who's a bit handy. Even on much smaller systems than mine, it seems like it would be cost effective in labor and water savings as well as over-all garden health. Note on useful life of system: My goal is to get at least 3 years out of this system, including taking it up each fall and reinstalling each spring. I'll update this review as those experiences are accumulated. So far so good though at this beginning stage.

This item was in the original packaging and in New condition. The Shipping package was adequate and quickly shipped. I received what I ordered. Thank You.

Rain bird emitters do not blow their top off like all the other ones called something else

Drip is the way to go. Works well

Awesome drippers. Been using for a couple months, no issues, and they all drip at the same rate.

Goutteur auto régulant 4l/h parfait pour mon potager

Ich habe die Tropfer mittlerweile installiert und bin wirklich begeistert. Die Montage war unkompliziert und die Tropfbewässerung funktioniert zuverlässig. Mit 1,0 Liter pro Stunde werden die Pflanzen gleichmäßig und gezielt bewässert, ohne Wasser zu verschwenden. Die Verarbeitung macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck und bisher arbeiten alle Tropfer einwandfrei. Für meine automatische Bewässerungsanlage genau die richtige Wahl. Klare Kaufempfehlung für alle, die eine einfache und effiziente Spot-Bewässerung im Garten umsetzen möchten.

worked good for plants in the green house

Habe Tropfer mit 1l/h gesucht. In der Beschreibung wird es klar beworben. Leider handelt es sich um eine Gallone pro Stunde (ca 4l)
