Getting Started
- I want to install my own drip irrigation system. Where do I start?
The best place to start is our Drip Irrigation Basics & Installation Tutorial. You'll learn how to plan & design a drip system, connect to a hose bibb, and how to compare drip emitters.
- How do I determine my household water pressure?
Please read our tutorial on Determining Your Household Water Pressure.
- How do I determine my water flow rate?
The flow rate is the amount of water flowing through your water supply line. Since drip emitters and micro sprays consume x gallons per hour, it is important to know the flow rate available to feed your emitters. It is measured in gallons per hour (GPH). To determine the flow rate out of your faucet (hose bibb, spigot, hydrant), read our tutorial on Determing Your Flow Rate.
- How do I hook a drip system up to the water supply?
Our Connecting to the Water Source tutorial will outline all the components needed to set up a hose bibb connection or connect to the main water supply.
