FAQs

How many plants can this set irrigate?

This starter set is designed to irrigate up to 30 terrace plants.

Is the system expandable?

Yes, the Gardena Micro-Drip-System is modular and can be easily expanded with additional components from the Gardena Micro-Drip range.

Does the set include a pressure regulator?

The Master Unit 1000 regulates the water pressure to approximately 1.5 bar, but a separate pressure regulator is not included.

Can I adjust the water output for different plants?

Yes, the set includes 10 adjustable endline drip heads (0–15 l/h) which allow you to tailor the water output to individual plant needs.

What is the difference between endline and inline drip heads?

Inline drip heads are inserted directly into the 4.6mm supply pipe and provide a consistent 2 l/h. Adjustable endline drip heads are placed at the end of a pipe run and can be adjusted from 0 to 15 l/h.

How do I clean the drip heads?

Use the included cleaning needle to gently clear any potential blockages from the drip head outlets.

Can this system be automated?

Yes, the system can be supplemented with an irrigation control unit, such as the Gardena Water Control Flex (sold separately), for automated watering schedules.

Troubleshooting

No water is flowing from the drip heads.

Ensure the water tap is fully open. Check that the Master Unit 1000 is correctly connected and that there are no kinks in the main pipes. Verify that the control and shut-off valves are open.

Uneven water distribution or low flow rate.

Check for blockages in the drip heads using the cleaning needle. Ensure all connections are secure and that the main pipe is not excessively long or restricted. Verify water pressure at the tap.

Drip heads are leaking.

Ensure drip heads are firmly inserted into the supply pipe. Check the supply pipe for any damage or improper cuts where the drip head is inserted.

System will not connect to the tap.

Ensure you are using a compatible tap connector for the Master Unit 1000. Check for any debris in the tap threads or the connector.
