Aqua Drop is a drip irrigation system that works by gravity feed from a water tank, without connection to the mains water. You raise the barrel or tank 1 to 2 metres above the bed and the water flows slowly directly to the roots of the plants. It is ideal for greenhouses, where it ensures even watering with significantly lower water consumption.
The pipes are made of black polyethylene, which prevents the growth of algae and micro organisms, while the water in the black pipe is additionally warmed in the sun. A filter at the start of the system prevents clogging, while a transparent water level tube shows you in good time when the tank needs topping up. Various T splitters, elbows, valves and plugs allow a flexible layout throughout your greenhouse.
