Watering Tips

Adjust your lawn mower to a higher setting. Longer grass shades the root systems and holds soil moisture better than a closely clipped lawn.

Adjust your irrigation controller for the weather and the season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Turn on the water before installing your Stake Assemblies or Drippers. Allow a gentle flow of water through your system to allow any debris to wash out before ending your system. This will help prevent clogging the emitters.

If a Micro Spray Mister becomes clogged, first check the black/purple flow controller at the end of your Stake Assembly. Simply twist apart and check the hole. If this is not the problem, unscrew the Mister and use a pin to clean it out. The MLA-Tool comes with a cleaning tool for making this job simple.

To make rolling out your 1/2" Poly Tubing even easier, hook up to faucet as the directions instruct and put the end fitting on the end of the line, closing off the water. The tubing will fill up with water, making it heavier and easier to unroll. Another tip is to sit the coil of 1/2" Poly Tubing in the sun for 20 minutes. This will also help make rolling it out easier. The last tip is to place every 10 to 15 feet the 1/2" Support Stake (MLA-57) by snapping it onto the 1/2" Poly, then push it into the ground to securely hold the tubing while you continue to unroll the coil through your landscapes.

To make the installation easier for any of our 1/2" Poly Locking Collar Fittings, first put a dab of olive oil onto a paper towel or tissue. Next, wipe the olive oil inside of the hole of the 1/2" Poly tubing. This will make pushing the end of the 1/2" Poly Tubing onto the built in O-ring of the fitting very easy!

To make the installation of any of the 1/4" Couplers, Tees, Elbows, Drippers, Goof Plugs, or 1/4" Valves into 1/4" Vinyl or 1/4" PE even easier, just dip the end of the Vinyl or PE into a cup of very warm water until the Vinyl is warm. Or if you can use the Installation Tool (MLA-TOOL), it can be used as leverage to push the Vinyl onto the 1/4" Barbs. This is especially helpful if you have arthritis or weakened hand strength.

Use a pressure regulator (MLA-58 or MLD-25) if your water pressure is too high. This will help prevent the Stake Assemblies, Drippers, and 1/4" Fittings from blowing out of the Vinyl or 1/2" Poly Tubing.

Adding a timer (MLWT-ELEC) to your Micro Sprinkler or Drip System will allow you to have a peace of mind when traveling, going on vacations, or just too busy to turn it on.

During winter months, remove your timer and store it inside. This will keep the mechanical parts from freezing and breaking.

You can leave your system out year-round! To winterize your system, undo the end fitting and allow water to drain out. It does not have to be completely empty of water.

Hook up a "Birdbath Dripper Kit" (MLK-BBKT). You will never have to fill up your bird bath again! And the birds will love you for this!

If you have a window box or flower pot that needs water, simply unscrew your existing sprinkler head and screw on a MLA-SPR1. You can now run a line of 1/4" Vinyl with a Dripper to your plant.

For seasonal plants or veggies, you can turn off specific Micro Sprinklers by turning off the on/off valve on each Stake Assembly or stop a whole line of 1/4" Drip Tubing.

Remember to adjust your Timer during the rainy season. This will avoid over-watering your plants and save gallons of water!

Periodically check your system to make sure it is running properly. You may find that as your plants grow, you may want to add more Micro Sprays or Drippers. It is a good idea to always have your punch tool and extra Stake Assemblies or Drippers on hand!

Perhaps you would like to cool off your pet's kennel. Hooking up Micro Spray Misters is a great way to keep your pets cool during the hot summer months.
