What maintenance is required for the system?

Troubleshooting
Water not flowing from emitters
Ensure the main water supply is turned on. Check that all connections are secure and not kinked. Verify that the emitters are not clogged; clean them if necessary.
Uneven water distribution
Adjust the flow rate on individual emitters. Ensure the tubing is not kinked or blocked. Check water pressure at the source; if too low, it may affect distribution.
Leak at connection points
Tighten the connection securely. If the leak persists, inspect the washer or gasket for damage and replace if needed.
Emitters are clogged
Carefully remove the clogged emitters and soak them in a solution of water and vinegar for a few hours. Rinse thoroughly and reinstall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Adjust Flow: Turn on the water slowly and adjust the flow rate for each emitter to achieve the desired watering level. Check for leaks and tighten connections as needed.
