for connection to the supply pipe, the base and 200mm dia. 650mm long PVC guard tube and an optional cast iron frame and cover. Connect the micro supply pipe to the main supply pipe by punching a hole in the main line with an irrigation hole punch and then inserting a tube adaptor into that hole. The tube adaptor creates an outlet for the micro supply pipe to connect to. Connect the other end of the micro supply pipe to the inlet of the micro spray stake. Water Timer - The ideal timer for this project would be the Claber Dual Select, as it allows the irrigation system to be split into two zones with just one computer to control both lines.

For edges of paths or placement along a wall or fence, use a 180° (half-circle) Microjet Spray. 180° microjets are the most common spray pattern used for planted areas less than 3 metres wide. We recommend an overlap of between 25%-50% to avoid dry patches. TOP TIP: Position sprays placed along edges or in corners 2-5 cm from the edge to prevent overspray onto paths, fences and walls. Lay the main supply pipe around the area to be watered. The tube will be more manageable if warmed in the sunshine before use. Initially, position it with weights until it relaxes.

Main Supply Pipes – A frequently asked question is, “Do I need to take the system in for the winter?”. The simple answer is no. You should, however, do your best to drain the system of excess water to prevent damage from freezing water. Remove all the stop ends in your system and any other connectors at low points that can help drain the excess water system.

With a scale map of your garden, draw a path from your water source past all the micro sprays you have planned. This path can branch off in different directions (using tee connectors) and do 90° turns around obstacles (using elbows). The idea of a watering system is to be hidden, so consider the best route for the pipework to follow to ensure it is out of sight. This could be underground (up to 5cm), under mulch, hidden behind bushes, or neatly pinned to a wall or fence.

To accurately determine how much supply pipe we need for our irrigation system, we can draw a route the pipe will take from the water source to your irrigation system's endpoint(s) on the map we previously created. To make sure your micro-spray system is performing at its best year after year, we should take some steps before the winter months set in and any freezing conditions.
