FAQs

What size tubing does this filter fit?

This filter is designed for 13mm barbed irrigation tubing.

How often should I clean the filter?

Cleaning frequency depends on your water quality. Inspect monthly and clean as needed. If you notice reduced water flow, it's time for a cleaning.

Can this filter be used with pressurized systems?

Yes, this filter is designed for use in standard irrigation systems which operate under pressure.

What is the mesh size of the screen?

The filter features an 80 mesh screen, suitable for trapping fine sediment.

Does the filter remove dissolved solids or chemicals?

No, this filter is designed to remove particulate matter (sediment and debris) and does not treat dissolved solids or chemicals in the water.

How do I know if the filter is installed correctly?

Ensure the arrow on the filter housing indicates the direction of water flow and that the tubing is securely attached to both barbed ends.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow after installation

Check the filter screen for debris. Clean or replace the screen if it is clogged. Ensure the filter is installed in the correct flow direction.

Filter leaking at connection points

Ensure the 13mm tubing is firmly seated onto the barbed ends of the filter. Check for any damage to the tubing or the filter barbs. Replace tubing or filter if necessary.

Emitters still clogging despite filter

The filter's mesh may be too coarse for the specific sediment in your water, or the sediment is entering the system upstream of the filter. Consider a finer mesh filter if available or check the entire system for leaks or entry points for debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly extends the life of irrigation emitters and valves.
Maintains efficient water flow, preventing system performance degradation.
Reduces the frequency and effort required for system maintenance.
Simple to install in-line with compatible tubing.
Fine mesh effectively filters out common irrigation system debris.

Cons

Requires a 13mm barbed connection, limiting compatibility with other sizes.
May require periodic cleaning or replacement of the screen depending on water quality.
Does not filter out dissolved minerals or chemical treatments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the filter in-line within your 13mm irrigation tubing. Ensure the flow direction arrow on the filter housing points in the direction of water flow. Push the barbed ends firmly into the tubing for a secure seal.

Compatibility: This filter is specifically designed for 13mm barbed irrigation tubing. It is compatible with most standard 13mm drip irrigation components.

Care: Periodically check the filter screen for sediment buildup. To clean, disconnect the filter, carefully remove the screen, and rinse it under running water. Reassemble once clean and dry. The frequency of cleaning will depend on the quality of your water source.
