The Flora Flex Micro Drippers require 15 PSI but the optimum is 25 -35 PSI.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePCL drippers (drippers that have that little round thing that you pierce into the delivery tube!) rely on a certain amount of pressure before they allow water to pass - this means that all drippers deliver water evenly across your plants.  Too little pressure and it might juuustt dribble out or not at all. Conversely, blasting the drippers with too much pressure risks damaging the drippers long term.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut a section in the middle of your micro drip irrigation system and add a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thehydrobros.com\/products\/floraflex-bsp-to-16-17mm-fittings\"\u003e16\/17mm pipe fitting tee \u003c\/a\u003eto join them back.
