Atami ATA Clean 250ml is a concentrated irrigation system cleaner designed to prevent and remove mineral deposits from pumps, filters, drippers, tanks and irrigation pipework. Used at just 0.1ml per litre, ATA Clean helps keep mineral residues water-soluble so they can be carried away with the irrigation water rather than accumulating within the system.
Nutrient solutions contain dissolved minerals and metallic ions including calcium, magnesium, iron and manganese. Over time, these can form crystals, flakes and sediment within irrigation equipment, potentially restricting water flow and contributing to blocked drippers and pipework.
ATA Clean works by binding with these mineral nutrients and helping break down accumulated crystals and deposits so they can be flushed through the irrigation system. Atami recommends it particularly for systems using tap water, and it can be used both preventatively and to tackle existing mineral residue.
Why use Atami ATA Clean?
- Helps prevent mineral deposits - designed to reduce the accumulation of nutrient-derived sediment within irrigation systems.
- Helps remove existing residue - can be used both preventatively and curatively.
- Keeps deposits water-soluble - helps mineral residue remain or become soluble so it can leave the system with the water flow.
- Helps maintain irrigation performance - particularly useful for pumps, filters, drippers, tanks and pipework.
- Extremely concentrated - the official Atami dosage is only 0.1ml per litre of water.
- Ideal for automatic irrigation - useful where narrow irrigation lines and drippers are vulnerable to mineral build-up.
- Especially suited to tap water - specifically recommended by Atami for use with tap water.
- Plant-compatible at the recommended rate - Atami states that ATA Clean is harmless to plants when used as directed.
- Simple addition to a nutrient programme - added after preparing the base nutrient solution and making any required pH adjustment.
How does ATA Clean work?
Fertilisers contain a range of water-soluble nutrients. While these are essential to plant nutrition, certain metallic nutrients and ions can gradually form deposits as nutrient solution moves through tanks, pumps, filters, pipes and irrigation emitters.
Atami identifies iron, manganese, calcium and magnesium among the nutrients that can contribute to sediment formation. ATA Clean contains substances that bond with these metallic nutrients and help break down crystals and flakes, allowing the resulting residue to be carried away with the irrigation water.
Regular use is therefore particularly valuable in automatic irrigation systems where small restrictions can gradually reduce water flow or interfere with the consistent operation of individual drippers.
How to use Atami ATA Clean
Atami recommends ATA Clean especially for use with tap water. Prepare the normal base nutrient solution first and, where necessary, adjust the pH to 5.5-6.5.
Allow the prepared base nutrient solution to stand briefly before adding ATA Clean. The official dosage is 0.1ml per litre of water.
ATA Clean can be incorporated preventatively into nutrient irrigation. Atami's current grow guides also recommend using ATA Clean in a couple of irrigations each week at 0.1ml/L to clean pumps, filters, drippers, tanks and pipes in automatic irrigation systems.
ATA Clean dosage
| Water volume | ATA Clean required |
|---|---|
| 10 litres | 1ml |
| 50 litres | 5ml |
| 100 litres | 10ml |
| 250 litres | 25ml |
| 500 litres | 50ml |
| 1,000 litres | 100ml |
At the recommended 0.1ml/L application rate, one 250ml bottle can treat up to approximately 2,500 litres of water.
Ideal for irrigation system maintenance
ATA Clean is particularly useful wherever nutrient solution is repeatedly moved through irrigation equipment. Maintaining clear water pathways can help reduce the risk of uneven delivery caused by mineral deposits building up within the system.
It can be incorporated into irrigation management for systems using tanks, pumps, filters, distribution pipework and drippers. Its very low application rate also means the 250ml bottle provides a substantial amount of treated irrigation water despite its compact size.
Is ATA Clean a fertiliser?
Although ATA Clean carries a relatively high P-K 18-6 W/W declaration, Atami specifically states that the product is not considered a fertiliser.
This is because ATA Clean is applied at only 0.1ml/L, so the amount of phosphorus and potassium contributed to the nutrient solution is very small. Its primary purpose is irrigation system maintenance rather than feeding the crop.

Atami ATA Clean FAQs
How much ATA Clean should I use?
Atami's official dosage is 0.1ml per litre of water, equivalent to 1ml per 10 litres.
How much water will a 250ml bottle treat?
At the standard 0.1ml/L dosage, a 250ml bottle provides enough ATA Clean for approximately 2,500 litres of irrigation water.
Can ATA Clean help with blocked drippers?
ATA Clean is designed to tackle mineral-based deposits that can accumulate in irrigation equipment. It helps break down crystals and sediment so they can be carried away with the irrigation water.
Can ATA Clean be used before deposits become a problem?
Yes. Atami states that ATA Clean can be used both preventatively and curatively, making regular preventative maintenance one of its key applications.
When should ATA Clean be added to the nutrient tank?
Prepare the base nutrient solution first, adjust the pH to 5.5-6.5 if required and allow the solution to stand briefly. ATA Clean is then added to the prepared solution.
Is ATA Clean a plant nutrient?
Its label carries a P-K declaration of 18-6 W/W, but Atami does not consider ATA Clean a fertiliser because the application rate is extremely low. Its main purpose is cleaning and maintaining the irrigation system.
Is ATA Clean suitable for automatic irrigation systems?
Yes. This is one of its most useful applications because automatic systems contain pumps, filters, pipes and drippers where mineral deposits can gradually accumulate.
Is ATA Clean suitable for tap water?
Yes. Atami specifically recommends ATA Clean for use with tap water.
What type of deposits does ATA Clean target?
It is intended for mineral sediment associated with nutrients and ions such as calcium, magnesium, iron and manganese, helping break down the crystals and flakes that can form within irrigation systems.
