Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dripper kit bag extension contain?
Two 25mm 4-way manifolds, 8 lengths of 3.2mm dripper line and 8 Antelco Asta 4lph spike drippers, plus one 25mm elbow and one 25mm tee, so you can tap a 4-plant drip run off your main 25mm feed with two drippers per plant.
How many plants does one dripper kit bag extension feed?
Four. It comes with two 4-way manifolds and 8 drippers between them, two lines and two drippers per plant, matching the two-per-pot setup used across our IWS kits.
What is the difference between the standard and drainage tap versions?
The drainage tap version has a 25mm tap built into the kit at the end of the run, so you can drain the line down at that point. Use it for the last bag extension on a run; use the standard version for every extension before it.
Can I run more than one bag extension off the same 25mm feed?
Yes. The elbow and tee in each kit are there to let you branch off a 25mm main line and carry on to the next extension, so you can chain several together along one run.
Descripción
This is a bag extension kit for branching a 4-plant drip run off a 25mm main feed. It's for growers extending an existing 25mm flood and drain or dripper system who want each plant fed by two drippers rather than one, the same two-per-pot setup used across our IWS kits, rather than starting from scratch.

In the Box
The 2 manifolds, 8 lengths of dripper line, 8 stakes, and the elbow and tee. No 25mm pipe itself included, since this kit is built to branch off a run you already have, and small bits like the stakes are easy to lose in the packaging, so check before you bin it.
Using the Dripper Kit Bag Extension
Use the elbow and tee to branch the kit off your existing 25mm line, then split across the two manifolds out to four plants, two stakes per plant for an even feed. If this is the last extension on the run, use the drainage tap version so you have a way to drain that end down; every extension before it can be the standard version.
