Notes:
- To automate your system, add a hose-end timer. Place it between the backflow preventer and psi regulator.
- If more than one tubing zone is being served by the faucet, add a Y connection to the faucet.
- If system is not working properly, first check 150 mesh filter to make sure it is not clogged with dirt.
TIP: Minimum operating pressure for a drip system is 15 psi, maximum is 25-30 psi. The Faucet Connection Kit (FC-KIT) and Riser Connection Kit each contain a 25-30 psi regulator to reduce higher pressures. These connection kits also incorporate a 150-200 mesh filter to protect the tubing emitters.
CAUTION: Not using the pressure regulator and filter may damage your system.
