So what is a Micro Irrigation System?

 

Micro Irrigation systems are small low pressure nozzles placed on riser sakes and positioned amongst the plant foliage at regular intervals as discretely as possible. These risers then connect to a main low pressure supply tube installed within the bed via a small micro tube. These systems are particularly suitable for water mains pressure connected to a household tap or small pumped irrigation systems.

 

A range of specific nozzles are available to suit particiular be sizes covering between a narrow strip no more than 0.5m wide, through nozzles to suit the largest of areas and plant types. Various spray patterns can also be provided with nozzles that throw just a half or a quarter circle, or fitted with an individual valve for fine tuning of the radius of throw.

 

Due to the low pressure and requirement of these nozzles, it is possible to operate these from a domestic water supply. Simply connect to a tap including a battery operated irrigation timer and you can have a very reasonably priced and simple fully automatic watering system.
