How it works

Drip lines and emitters release water a drop at a time at the base of each plant, so almost none is lost to wind or runoff.

The benefits

Drip uses less water, keeps foliage dry, and waters deeply. In dry climates, it is the most efficient way to irrigate.

The maintenance

Emitters can clog, and lines can be cut by tools. mineral-rich water varies by region, and older neighborhoods still run on aging galvanized or copper lines In Adelanto, a spring check keeps the system running all season.
