This complete kit comes with 30-ft of vinyl ( MLT-B30 ), a backflow prevention valve ( MLF-31), a 1/4-in faucet adapter ( MLA-FAS ), and 8 Adjustable Dripper Stakes-older version- (MLD-STA-OLD) to attach to any outdoor faucet to drip water into 8 potted plants or spray water for only 3 plants
Each dripper stake is adjustable by turning the top dial to water from 0 to 10 GPH and releasing drops of water up to spraying 8 individual streams of water in a 2.5-ft diameter
Use the 1/4-in vinyl tee fittings ( MLT-TEE ) to run the vinyl to the adjustable dripper stakes ( MLD-STA) and push the 1/4-in vinyl end onto the 1/4-in barb inlet on the side of the stake
Use the 10 nail fastener clamps ( MLT-VCL ) to secure 1/4-in vinyl to wooden decks and beams to run up to hanging baskets
If you later decide to use our ½-in Poly as the main line, use the removable 1/4-in couplers from the side of the Stake to run lines of the 1/4-in vinyl from the 1/2-in poly tubing
Drippers and Drip Tubing should NEVER be buried underground but can be covered lightly with Mulch
