I think that is why the drip kits are so popular, people dont have to go through all of the research.
The tees are the universal tees that will fit both the drip line and drip tubing.
Drip tubing has no holes and drip line does.

Here is the 200 mesh drip filter with flush valve.
You can hook a hose up to the end of the valve so you dont flood the area if you dont want to.
I highly recommend using the 200 mesh filter in any type of .


These are the barbed valves.

This is the adjustable regulator.

Faucet vacuum breaker to prevent contaminating the water supply.

Needs to be at least around 16 inches above the highest drip point.
A water hose can go from here to the hose adapter so the filter regulator assembly could be mounted on a post or fence.
It all doesn't have to hang off of the faucet.


Pipe to hose adapter.

Pipe coupling to go from male hose adapter to filter.

Adapter to go from regulator to drip tubing.
The tubing fits inside the adapter.



Yes I know there are a thousand ways to do this.
But lets say a person wanted to make up a kit to sell and the buyer didn't want to have to go out and buy a hose clamp or rig it in some other way this would be a way to do it.

Jon your welcome.
