Micro sprinkling for your garden
Micro Sprinkling is a system of watering particularly adapted to the large flowered solid masses and rubbles.
It is a very fine rain which sprinkles with low pressure (that does not damage the flowers, even fragile) and at various rather broad distances (1 to eters of department following the marks).
That Ci is posed very simply since all the pipes are on the surface, with connections to be encased or to screw: many parts are common with an installation Drop by drop (see preceding card: balconies and terraces). On the other hand, never mix on the same pipe of micro the with .
Therefore, a programmer on the tap, an end of hosepipe with connections, a , pipe EP in diameter 13x16, cramps of grounds to maintain the pipe in place, a small gate valve at the end of the pipe which will make it possible to drain the winter easily (since the pipe is on the surface, it is not by no means protected from the cold).
Once the main pipe of 13x16 in place, he is enough to create derivations on small pipe (m or 4,m) until a support.
At the top of this support, one screws or encases the micro .
It should be noted that derivations out of small tube will have to be relatively short (not more than eter generally) and that between the support and the micro , it is often possible to place a prolongation (to raise the micro according to the vegetation) and a small regulating tap (to regulate the distance from the jet).
One places a micro all the 2 or approximately eters (according to the features): is needed that the jets crosses, a always having to seek to sprinkle its neighbor.
Even if they sprinkle with a pressure of some bars in fine rain, micro the can have an important flow (up to 100 liters for some). One cannot thus place a too significant number of it on only one line.
The technical main advantages of the micro sprinkling are, if one compares it with a watering by :
- Excel hedging of watering on a large surface (for a rubble for example). Drop by drop sprinkling only on one tape of ground of about 60cm broad.
- less pipes to be passed in the solid masses, that facilitates the conversation/plantations and decreases the risks of breack-in.
- in a caricatural way, where one needs 50 to sprinkle a solid mass, one obtains a much better water distribution with only 5 .
- the , in height, do not stop themselves, contrary to being able to end up being buried in the very dense solid masses.
- it is easy to move a since it is always in derivation of the main pipe on a support planted in the ground. In remark, I would indicate that the solution to put the directly in the pipe of 13x16 am not qualitative in term of watering and can, in certain cases, defective being very quickly (as from the second year).
- finally, watering by micro sprinkling is esthetic when it functions (note: you will tell me that must function towards 2:00 of the morning, and that the visual aspect is not primordial at this hour….)
All this being very easy to pose, I wish you a “good installation”.
