Rain Bird CNV182EMS Drip Irrigation Sprinkler Conversion Kit, 1800 Series Pop-Up to 6 Drip Emitters with 1/4″ Tubing

Description

Rain Bird CNV182EMS Drip Irrigation Sprinkler Conversion Kit, 1800 Series Pop-Up to 6 Drip Emitters with 1/4” Tubing. Kit converts underground sprinklers in landscaped areas to water-saving Drip irrigation emitters. Easily installed in minutes, this kit waters flower beds, shrubs, and more with pinpoint efficiency. All-in-one unit provides 30 psi pressure regulation, and 200-mesh filter screen for optimal Drip system performance. Saving up to 40% over sprinkler watering, Drip systems apply water directly to the root zone for healthier, faster-growing plants, longer lasting blooms, and greener leaves. Since you won’t be watering the surrounding soil, you’ll also have fewer weeds to pull. In most instances, owners of Rain Bird 1800 Series pop-up sprinklers (#1 installed sprinkler head by professional installers) will make the conversion without digging. To install kit simply unscrew the old sprinkler head, screw on the retro fit head and manifold, attach tubing to manifold and cut to length. Insert chosen emitter into end of tubing; use stake to hold tubing and place near the root zone of your plants. Each retro-fit conversion head will replace pop-up sprinklers with a 1/2” threaded bottom inlet. Dig out old sprinkler and thread on retro-fit assembly; flush system to remove any debris before adding tubing or emitters. Each kit contains (1) pressure-compensating 6-outlet manifold, (1) 1800 retro-fit spray head with filter and pressure regulator, (1) 50’ roll of 1/4” Drip distribution tubing; (6) stakes to hold tubing and direct the flow at each plant (3) 1.0 gallon per hour black emitters, (3) 2.0 gallon per hour red emitters. You can cap off any additional unused spray heads using Rain Bird’s model 1800CAPS (sold separately). Rain Bird “The Intelligent Use of Water”
