The TOP irrigation retrofit has twelve pressure-compensating replaceable nozzles for watering up to twelve individual plants, a small group of plants, areas with difficult terrain, windy areas or oddly shaped areas that a sprinkler head cannot reach. Retrofitting some of the sprinkler risers into a drip system will not have any effect on the sprinkler system’s total flow rate. The Drip Irrigation Retrofit Kit includes a 1/2" FNPT 12-outlet pressure-compensating manifold head with a flow rate of 1 GPH (gallon per hour) per outlet. The D170 Drip Irrigation Retrofit Kit also includes 100’ of high quality 1/8” micro tubing and all the components needed to install the kit.

Drip irrigation is the slow application of water directly to the plants' root zone in a predetermined pattern. Maintaining an optimum moisture level in the soil at all times results in less water lost to the sun and the wind. No water is wasted on non-growth areas, and the root zone is maintained at its ideal moisture level, combining the proper balance of water and air for a very efficient irrigation system.

One of the most important features of a drip irrigation system is the creation of a totally new and more favorable root zone environment within the planting. Drip irrigation sustains this environment by using low flow rates to maintain constant soil moisture levels. This encourages better growth and disease resistance by reducing plant stress
