Design Your System

A major benefit of Raindrip is that it can always be added onto as your gardening and landscaping needs change. Additional feeders and longer tubing are easily added to suit your particular landscape.

Use the calculator below to find out exactly how much material you will need to expand your system.

Using a tape measure, find the distance from the point source to the furthest plants.
Count how many total trees, shrubs, and container plants you have, and measure the size of your
planter boxes and flower beds.

Tips for Flower, Shrub and Tree Kit and GroundCover & Flower Bed Kit:

Make sure not to use more than 200ft of supply tubing (SDT50P) and do not exceed 150 GPH per faucet connection



Tips for Container and Hanging Baskets kit:

Make sure not to use more than 75ft of ¼” supply tubing (016005P) and do not exceed 15 GPH per faucet connection (maximum two connections)



Tips for all kits:

Fill your supply tubing with water (also known as pressurizing) before installing your feeder lines. Additional Instructions and videos for programming your timer can be found here

Depending on the layout of your system, additional elbows, tees, couplers and/or end caps may be necessary

Anatomy of a Drip System

While they may appear complex at first glance, drip systems can be broken down into easy-to-understand components.
Every drip watering system is structured around three major aspects:

  • The Water Source

    Often called the point-of-connection.

  • The Mainline

    The main feeder artery that distributes water from the source to the planted area.

  • Emitter Devices

    These apply water at each plant location, including devices like individual emitters, bubblers, micro sprays and dripperline.
