Unit price perThe HydroPC 16mm Pressure Compensated Drip Line - 1.6L/h - 30cm Spacing - 400m is a 16mm pressure-compensated drip line supplied in a 400m roll, with stated emitter flow of 1.6L/h and 30cm emitter spacing.
It is designed for compatible professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems where emitter spacing and flow are matched to crop layout and water demand.
Key benefits
Matching emitter spacing to the crop
This line uses 30cm emitter spacing. Select spacing according to crop layout, substrate or soil wetting pattern and the number of emitters required across the root zone.
Closer spacing increases the number of emitters operating over a given run length and therefore changes total zone flow demand.
Emitter flow & irrigation scheduling
The stated emitter flow is 1.6L/h. Irrigation duration should be based on crop demand, root-zone volume, weather and actual system output rather than a fixed run time.
Pressure compensation is intended to support more consistent emitter performance within the product operating conditions, but the complete system still needs appropriate pressure, filtration and hydraulic design.
Planning irrigation zones
Calculate the number of operating emitters or outlets and total flow demand before finalising a zone. Long runs, elevation changes and undersized supply pipework can affect pressure and irrigation uniformity.
Divide systems into manageable zones where necessary rather than exceeding the available water supply or the practical hydraulic capacity of the installation.
Filtration, flushing & commissioning
Use filtration appropriate to the water source and emitter waterways. Flush new lines before routine use where appropriate, then run the system and inspect representative outlets for expected delivery.
Maintain filters and flush lines according to water quality and system requirements. Investigate blocked emitters, leaks or damaged pipe promptly.
Installation & storage
Route lines without kinking or crushing and protect them from sharp edges and traffic. Store unused coils clean and protected from physical damage before installation.

How long is the supplied roll?
The supplied roll length is 400m. What spacing is stated?
The stated outlet/emitter spacing is 30cm. What emitter flow is stated?
The stated emitter flow is 1.6L/h. How do I know how much water the zone requires?
Calculate the number of operating emitters or outlets and their flow, then compare total demand with the available water supply and hydraulic design. Is filtration important?
Yes. Suitable filtration helps protect small emitter waterways and maintain irrigation uniformity. Should new irrigation lines be flushed?
Flush and commission lines as appropriate to the system before relying on them for crop irrigation. Can very long runs affect uniformity?
Yes. Run length, elevation, pipe size, total flow and pressure all influence system performance. How should the line be installed?
Avoid kinks, crushing and sharp edges and protect the line from traffic or other physical damage. How should irrigation performance be checked?
Inspect and, where useful, measure output at representative points across the zone and investigate meaningful differences.
The GEKA Large Alloy Rose 3/4" Female STANDARD is a GEKA watering rose designed for producing a dispersed watering pattern from a compatible lance or 3/4-inch fitting.
Professional hand watering allows growers to direct water where it is needed and adjust technique to the crop, container size and growing environment.
Key benefits
Choosing & maintaining a watering rose
Fit the rose only to a compatible lance or fitting. Select the watering pattern to suit the crop and avoid using excessive pressure that can disturb growing media, seedlings or delicate foliage.
Keep rose openings clean and remove mineral or debris build-up if the watering pattern becomes uneven.
Watering crops effectively
Water demand changes with crop size, container volume, substrate, temperature, light and airflow. Check the crop and growing medium rather than applying the same volume automatically to every plant.
Where possible, water evenly and allow appropriate drainage, adjusting frequency and volume to the crop rather than compensating for poor irrigation uniformity with excessive water.
Care & maintenance
Keep connections, valves and rose openings clean. Inspect seals and threaded fittings periodically and replace worn parts when leakage or poor operation develops.

Unit price perThe Supertif Non-Drain Dripper - 7.8L/h Straight Conic Outlet is a professional irrigation dripper with a stated nominal flow of 7.8L/h and a straight conic outlet configuration.
It is intended for compatible nursery, greenhouse and container-crop irrigation systems where individual emitters are selected as part of the complete hydraulic design.
Key benefits
Selecting dripper flow rate
The stated nominal flow for this model is 7.8L/h. Select emitter flow according to crop water demand, container volume, substrate, irrigation frequency and the number of emitters serving each plant.
A higher nominal flow is not automatically better. Short irrigation events, small containers or low-retention substrates may require a different strategy from large nursery stock or longer irrigation zones.
Outlet configuration & installation
This version uses a straight conic outlet. Match the outlet to the intended microtube, stake or downstream connection and use compatible insertion tools where required. Do not force mismatched tube or fittings onto the emitter.
Route downstream tube without kinks and avoid side-loading the dripper connection. Secure stakes or outlets so water is delivered consistently to the intended root-zone position.
Non-drain irrigation behaviour
A non-drain dripper should be considered as part of the complete irrigation zone. Line drainage, elevation changes, start-up behaviour and pressure conditions can influence how quickly individual containers receive water at the beginning and end of an irrigation cycle.
Where highly uniform short pulses are required, verify actual system behaviour across representative positions rather than relying only on the emitter's nominal flow figure.
Pressure, filtration & uniformity
Emitter performance depends on suitable operating pressure and clean water. Use filtration appropriate to the water source and irrigation system and monitor pressure where necessary across longer or more complex zones.
Periodically collect and compare output from representative emitters. Differences can indicate blockage, pressure variation, damaged pipework or installation issues.
Maintenance
Flush irrigation lines according to water quality and system requirements. Inspect emitters and downstream components for blockage or damage and replace components that cannot be restored to reliable operation.

Unit price perThe PGV 1.5" Solenoid Irrigation Valve with Flow Control is designed for automated control of compatible professional irrigation zones.
Solenoid and pressure-regulating valves allow irrigation sections to be opened, closed or controlled as part of a correctly designed nursery, greenhouse, landscape or horticultural water system.
Key benefits
Automated irrigation-zone control
Use the valve to control a compatible irrigation zone from the appropriate controller or switching system. Size the valve and pipework for the required zone flow and available pressure, and install it in the correct flow direction.
Where flow control is provided, use it for appropriate adjustment and commissioning rather than as a substitute for correct hydraulic design.
Electrical compatibility
The stated electrical designation for this version is Controller/solenoid dependent. Confirm controller output, solenoid type and wiring requirements before connection. Do not apply an assumed voltage simply because another valve in the same irrigation system uses it.
Electrical installation in wet horticultural environments should use suitable connections and protection and should be carried out in accordance with the applicable installation requirements.
Installation & commissioning
Flush upstream pipework before final commissioning where appropriate. Install the valve with adequate access for service, support connected pipework and avoid transferring pipe strain into the valve body.
Pressurise the system gradually, check for leakage and confirm that the valve opens and closes correctly under normal controller operation.
Flow, pressure & filtration
Valve performance depends on the complete hydraulic system. Available pressure, flow demand, pipe size, elevation and downstream equipment all influence operation. Use filtration appropriate to the water source and the irrigation components being protected.
Maintenance & fault finding
If a valve fails to open, close or regulate correctly, isolate the system safely and check controller output, wiring, solenoid condition, debris, diaphragm or internal components as appropriate to the valve design. Replace damaged parts rather than forcing manual operation.

The 6-Pot Dripper Kit is designed for small multi-pot irrigation setups in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.
Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.
Key benefits
Simple multi-pot irrigation
The 6-pot starter kit provides a practical basis for distributing water to a small group of containers. Arrange the pipework so each pot can be reached cleanly without tight bends or stretched connections.
Before leaving the system unattended, run an irrigation cycle and check each outlet for delivery and leaks. Adjust irrigation duration to the crop, container volume and growing medium rather than assuming one timing suits every plant.
Irrigation system management
Good components cannot compensate for poor system design. Size pipework, zones and water supply for the required flow and pressure, and use suitable filtration where emitters or small waterways are vulnerable to debris.
Flush and inspect irrigation systems as appropriate to water quality and crop hygiene requirements.
Maintenance & storage
Inspect components periodically for blockage, wear, leaks or physical damage. Keep installation tools clean and dry between jobs and replace damaged components rather than relying on temporary fixes in production systems.

Unit price perHigh-output 70mm cylindrical air stone for increasing aeration and circulation in hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 70mm Coke Can Air Stone is designed to disperse air throughout water or nutrient solution, helping growers maintain a well-aerated root environment. Its cylindrical shape provides a larger diffusing surface than smaller ball-style air stones, making it a useful choice for hydroponic reservoirs and systems requiring a stronger level of aeration.
Connect the air stone to a suitably powerful external air pump and submerge it in the reservoir. Air is forced through the porous body, creating a continuous spread of bubbles that helps increase dissolved oxygen and keeps the surrounding nutrient solution moving.
Coke can air stones are particularly well suited to DWC, bubbler systems and nutrient reservoirs. Several can also be run from a larger air pump using a suitable airline manifold for multi-pot or multi-reservoir installations.
Why choose a 70mm Coke Can Air Stone?
What is a Coke Can Air Stone used for?
A Coke Can Air Stone is a porous diffuser used to introduce air into water or hydroponic nutrient solution. Unlike an open airline that releases air from a single point, the porous surface breaks the incoming airflow into a continuous spread of bubbles.
In hydroponics, this makes it particularly useful for aerating nutrient reservoirs and systems where plant roots remain in or have regular contact with nutrient solution. The moving bubbles increase gas exchange and help prevent the water immediately around the diffuser from remaining stagnant.
Ideal for DWC and hydroponic reservoirs
The larger cylindrical design makes this air stone particularly useful in deep water culture systems and nutrient tanks where stronger aeration is required. It can be positioned towards the bottom of the reservoir so bubbles rise through the nutrient solution before reaching the surface.
For multi-pot systems, several air stones can be connected to a suitably sized air pump. An airline manifold can divide the main air supply into individual feeds for each reservoir or growing position.
How to use the 70mm Coke Can Air Stone
Connect the air stone to compatible airline running from a suitable external air pump or compressor. Submerge the complete porous section of the air stone in the water or nutrient solution, ideally positioning it towards the bottom of the reservoir.
Switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced across the diffuser. This 70mm Coke Can Air Stone is designed for relatively high airflow and is listed for approximately 5 – 10 litres of air per minute, so the connected pump should be appropriately sized.
If bubble production reduces over time, inspect the airline and air stone for restrictions or mineral deposits. Keeping the diffuser clean helps maintain consistent airflow through its porous surface.

The 100mm version measures approximately 100mm high by 50mm in diameter, giving it a larger diffusing body than the 70mm Coke Can Air Stone. It is a useful choice for DWC systems, bubbler systems and larger hydroponic nutrient reservoirs.
Why choose a 100mm Coke Can Air Stone?
What is a 100mm Coke Can Air Stone used for?
A Coke Can Air Stone is submerged in water or nutrient solution and supplied with air from an external pump. The porous body breaks the incoming airflow into bubbles rather than releasing air from a single open airline.
This makes the 100mm version particularly useful for hydroponic nutrient tanks and DWC systems where continuous aeration is needed around submerged roots. Its larger cylindrical body also makes it a practical option for bigger reservoirs where a small air stone may not provide the desired spread of bubbles.
Ideal for larger hydroponic reservoirs
At approximately 100mm high and 50mm in diameter, this is a sizeable air diffuser designed for use with a suitable high-output air pump. Positioning the air stone towards the bottom of a reservoir allows bubbles to rise through more of the nutrient solution before reaching the surface.
Several Coke Can Air Stones can also be incorporated into a larger aeration system. A suitable airline manifold allows one sufficiently powerful air pump or compressor to supply individual air stones across several reservoirs or growing positions.
How to use the 100mm Coke Can Air Stone
Connect the air stone to compatible airline running from a suitable external air pump or compressor. Place the air stone in the nutrient tank or reservoir, keeping the porous diffuser submerged and preferably positioned towards the bottom.
Switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced through the diffuser. Coke Can Air Stones require a substantial air supply, with current UK hydroponic listings specifying approximately 5 – 10 litres of air per minute, so use a pump capable of providing the required airflow.
If the air stone is being used as part of a multi-outlet system, remember that the pump's total output is shared between all connected diffusers. The air pump therefore needs to be sized for the complete aeration setup rather than for a single air stone.
Over time, deposits can restrict the porous surface and reduce bubble production. Keeping the diffuser clean and checking the airline for kinks or blockages will help maintain consistent performance.

Unit price per50m roll of porous 4mm bubbler tubing for creating custom-length air diffusers and an even wall of bubbles in hydroponic reservoirs.
This 4mm Bubbler Tubing gives growers a flexible alternative to conventional air stones. Instead of carrying air to a separate diffuser, the porous tubing releases air through its surface, producing bubbles along the length of the tube.
Supplied as a 50m roll, it can be cut and arranged to suit different reservoir shapes and aeration layouts. This makes it particularly useful for custom hydroponic systems, larger nutrient tanks and applications where you want to spread aeration across a wider area rather than concentrate it around a single air stone.
The tubing has a 4mm internal diameter and approximately 9mm external diameter. Connect it to a suitable air supply, close the far end and position the porous section within the reservoir to create your own air diffuser.
Why choose 4mm Bubbler Tubing?
What is bubbler tubing used for?
Bubbler tubing is a porous air diffuser supplied in flexible tube form. When connected to an air pump, air passes through the walls of the submerged tubing and creates a fine, even spread of bubbles.
Because the tubing itself acts as the diffuser, growers can create aeration layouts that follow the shape of a reservoir or cover a wider area than a small individual air stone. It is particularly useful for DIY hydroponic systems and custom reservoir setups.
Bubbler tubing or an air stone?
A conventional air stone concentrates aeration around a fixed diffuser. Bubbler tubing allows the diffusing area to be extended along a chosen length, giving you more freedom over where bubbles are produced within the reservoir.
This makes bubbler tubing a useful option for long tanks, larger reservoirs and unusual layouts where several fixed air stones would otherwise be needed to spread aeration across the available space.
How to use 4mm Bubbler Tubing
Cut the bubbler tubing to the required length for your reservoir or aeration layout. Connect one end to a compatible airline supply from a suitably sized air pump, using the appropriate connector where required.
Seal the opposite end with a compatible stop end so that the incoming air is forced through the porous wall of the tubing. Position the bubbler tubing below the surface of the water or nutrient solution, then switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced along the required section.
Longer lengths of bubbler tubing place greater demand on the air supply, so the connected pump should be sized for the amount of tubing being operated and the level of aeration required.

4mm Bubbler Tubing FAQs
What is bubbler tubing?
Bubbler tubing is porous tubing designed to act as an air diffuser. When connected to an air pump and submerged, air escapes through the tubing wall to create bubbles along its length.
Does bubbler tubing replace an air stone?
Yes, it can. The porous tubing itself acts as the diffuser, so a separate air stone is not required at the end of the bubbler section.
What size is this bubbler tubing?
The tubing has a 4mm internal diameter and approximately 9mm external diameter. This product is supplied as a 50m roll.
Can I cut bubbler tubing to length?
Yes. One of the main advantages of bubbler tubing is that it can be cut to create an aeration section suited to the reservoir or hydroponic system being built.
Do I need to seal the end of bubbler tubing?
Yes. The far end should be closed with a compatible stop end so that the supplied air is forced through the porous tubing rather than escaping freely from the open end.
Can I use bubbler tubing in a hydroponic reservoir?
Yes. It is particularly useful for hydroponic reservoirs because the tubing can be positioned to distribute bubbles across a wider area of nutrient solution.
Is bubbler tubing suitable for DWC?
Yes. Bubbler tubing can be used as a diffuser in DWC systems where continuous nutrient solution aeration is required.
What air pump do I need for bubbler tubing?
The required pump capacity depends on the length of bubbler tubing being operated and the aeration required. Longer diffuser runs need a greater air supply than short sections, so the pump should be sized for the complete setup.
Can I make a custom-shaped air diffuser with bubbler tubing?
Yes. Its flexible format makes bubbler tubing useful for creating custom aeration layouts within reservoirs where a conventional fixed air stone may not provide the desired coverage.
200m roll of clear 4mm airline tubing for connecting air pumps and manifolds to air stones, diffusers and hydroponic aeration equipment.
This 4mm Clear Airline Tubing provides the link between your air pump and the equipment doing the aerating. Supplied on a generous 200m roll, it is ideal for building larger hydroponic aeration systems, replacing old airline or cutting multiple individual runs for pots and reservoirs.
Use it to carry air from a compatible air pump directly to an air stone, or connect it to the outlets of an airline manifold when one larger pump is supplying several aeration points.
The long 200m roll is particularly useful for commercial grow rooms, propagation areas and multi-pot hydroponic installations where numerous lengths of airline are needed from one central supply.
Why choose 4mm Clear Airline Tubing?
What is 4mm airline tubing used for?
Airline tubing carries air from an external air pump to an air stone, diffuser or other aeration accessory. In hydroponic systems, this allows growers to position the pump away from the reservoir while delivering air directly to the submerged diffuser.
It can also be used with compatible airline manifolds. A larger incoming air supply is divided at the manifold, with individual lengths of 4mm airline then running to separate air stones or aeration points.
This makes a 200m roll particularly practical for DWC systems, nutrient reservoirs, propagation setups and larger multi-pot installations where many separate airline runs are required.
How to use 4mm Airline Tubing
Cut the airline to the length required for your installation. Push one end securely onto the compatible outlet of your air pump or manifold and connect the other end to an air stone, diffuser or other suitable aeration accessory.
Route the tubing neatly between the air supply and reservoir, avoiding sharp bends, crushing or kinks that could restrict airflow. For multi-pot installations, cut individual runs from the roll and connect them to the corresponding outlets on the manifold.
When planning a larger system, remember that longer airline runs and multiple air stones increase the demand placed on the pump. The air pump should therefore provide enough total airflow for the complete installation.

Is this the same as porous bubbler tubing?
No. Standard airline carries air to a separate air stone or diffuser. Porous bubbler tubing acts as the diffuser itself and releases bubbles through the wall of the tubing.
Can one air pump supply several lengths of airline?
Yes. A suitable manifold can divide the output from a sufficiently powerful air pump between several individual 4mm airline runs.
How should I route airline tubing?
Keep runs as direct and tidy as practical and avoid sharp bends, crushing or kinks that could restrict the flow of air to the connected diffuser.

Unit price per150mm flat ceramic air stone for producing a wide spread of fine bubbles across hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 150mm Round Flat Ceramic Air Stone provides a simple way to increase aeration and movement throughout a hydroponic nutrient solution. Its broad, porous ceramic surface releases air as many small bubbles, spreading aeration over a much wider area than a compact ball-style air stone.
At 150mm or 6 inches in diameter, the disc sits flat at the bottom of a reservoir or tank. Connect the 4mm inlet to a suitable air pump using compatible airline and the incoming air is distributed through the porous ceramic body.
It is particularly useful for DWC systems, hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and other growing systems where continuous aeration helps keep the solution moving around the root zone.
Why choose a 150mm Flat Ceramic Air Stone?
What is a flat ceramic air stone used for?
A flat ceramic air stone is a submerged diffuser that takes air from an external pump and distributes it through thousands of small pores. Instead of releasing air from a single open airline, the ceramic surface produces a broad spread of bubbles across the reservoir.
The 150mm disc format is particularly useful where you want aeration distributed across a wider area. Its low, flat shape allows the air stone to sit at the bottom of the tank while bubbles rise through the nutrient solution above it.
Ideal for DWC and nutrient reservoirs
In deep water culture systems, roots spend extended periods in nutrient solution, making active aeration an important part of the setup. A flat air stone positioned beneath the root zone creates a continuous stream of bubbles while helping keep the nutrient solution moving.
The 150mm size is also well suited to standalone nutrient reservoirs and other hydroponic tanks where a broader diffusing surface is preferred to a small individual air stone.
How to use the 150mm Ceramic Air Stone
Connect compatible 4mm airline to the inlet on the side of the air stone, then connect the other end to a suitably sized external air pump. Place the ceramic disc flat at the bottom of the reservoir and keep the porous section submerged.
Once the pump is switched on, air passes through the ceramic body and bubbles rise through the surrounding water or nutrient solution.
Keep the airline free from kinks and restrictions. For added protection against water travelling back towards the pump when it is switched off, the air pump can be positioned above the water level or a suitable non-return valve can be incorporated into the airline.

150mm Ceramic Air Stone FAQs
What size is this ceramic air stone?
The air stone is 150mm, or approximately 6 inches, in diameter and has a flat circular design.
What size airline does the 150mm air stone use?
This 150mm version has a 4mm inlet for connecting compatible airline to a suitable air pump.
What does a ceramic air stone do?
Air supplied by an external pump passes through the porous ceramic body and is released as many small bubbles, helping aerate and circulate the surrounding water or nutrient solution.
Is the 150mm air stone suitable for DWC?
Yes. Its broad diffusing surface makes it particularly useful for aerating nutrient solution in deep water culture systems.
Where should I position a flat air stone?
Place it flat towards the bottom of the reservoir or tank. This allows bubbles to rise through the nutrient solution from a low position in the system.
Does this air stone need an air pump?
Yes. The ceramic air stone is a diffuser and requires a suitable external air pump to supply the airflow.
Is an air pump or airline included?
No. The air stone is supplied separately, so a suitable air pump and compatible 4mm airline are required to create a complete aeration setup.
Can I use more than one 150mm air stone?
Yes. Multiple air stones can be incorporated into a larger aeration system provided the connected air pump has sufficient output. A suitable manifold can be used to divide the air supply between separate airline runs.
Why use a flat air stone instead of a small ball air stone?
The larger flat ceramic surface spreads bubbles across a wider area, making it useful when you want broader aeration across the bottom of a nutrient reservoir rather than a concentrated stream from a smaller diffuser.
100mm flat ceramic air stone for creating a wide spread of fine bubbles in hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 100mm Round Flat Ceramic Air Stone provides effective aeration without taking up unnecessary space in the bottom of a reservoir. Its broad porous surface disperses air as many small bubbles, helping oxygenate the nutrient solution while creating useful movement within the tank.
Measuring 100mm, or approximately 4 inches, across, this compact ceramic disc sits flat on the bottom of a reservoir. Connect it to a suitable external air pump using compatible airline and air is forced through the porous stone before bubbling through the surrounding solution.
It is a practical choice for DWC buckets, hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and other systems where continuous aeration is required around the root zone.
Why choose a 100mm Flat Ceramic Air Stone?
What is a flat ceramic air stone used for?
A flat ceramic air stone acts as a submerged diffuser. Air supplied by an external pump is forced through the many pores in the ceramic body, creating a spread of small bubbles rather than releasing the air from one open airline.
As those bubbles rise through the reservoir they create movement in the nutrient solution and increase aeration. The flat disc design also keeps the diffuser low in the tank, allowing bubbles to rise through the water from near the bottom of the reservoir.
Ideal for DWC and hydroponic reservoirs
The 100mm size is particularly useful for DWC buckets and individual nutrient reservoirs where a compact diffuser with a broad bubbling surface is required.
For larger hydroponic installations, several ceramic air stones can be positioned in separate pots or reservoirs. A suitably sized air pump and manifold can then distribute air between the individual diffuser lines.
How to use the 100mm Ceramic Air Stone
Connect suitable flexible airline between the ceramic air stone and an appropriately sized external air pump. Place the air stone flat at the bottom of the reservoir, keeping the porous ceramic section submerged.
Switch on the pump and air will pass through the porous surface, producing bubbles throughout the surrounding nutrient solution. Positioning the diffuser low in the reservoir gives those bubbles more distance to travel before reaching the surface.
Keep airline runs free from kinks and restrictions that could reduce airflow. Positioning the air pump above the water level helps protect it against water siphoning back through the airline if the power is switched off.

Where should I position a flat air stone?
Position it flat at the bottom of the reservoir or tank. This keeps the diffuser low in the solution and allows bubbles to rise through the water above it.
Does the ceramic air stone need an air pump?
Yes. The air stone is a diffuser rather than an air source, so it needs to be connected to a suitable external air pump.
Can I use several 100mm air stones from one air pump?
Yes. Multiple air stones can be operated from one sufficiently powerful air pump. A suitable manifold can be used to divide the pump output between the individual airline runs.
What is the difference between a 100mm and 150mm ceramic air stone?
The 100mm version has a more compact 4-inch diffusing surface, making it useful for individual buckets and smaller reservoirs. The 150mm version provides a larger 6-inch diffusing area for broader bubble distribution in bigger reservoirs.
Are the air pump and airline included?
No. The ceramic air stone is supplied separately, allowing the air pump and airline to be selected to suit the aeration system.
The Irrigation Pipe Cutters is designed for cleanly cutting compatible irrigation pipe in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.
Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.
Key benefits
Clean, repeatable irrigation installation
Use the correct installation tool for the pipe, dripper or fitting being installed. Purpose-designed cutters and punches help create cleaner connections than improvised blades or sharp objects, reducing the risk of distorted pipe and poor seals.
Support the pipe while working, keep hands clear of cutting or punching edges and inspect the finished connection before pressurising the irrigation system.
Commissioning after installation
Once fittings or emitters have been installed, flush the line where appropriate, pressurise the system gradually and check for leakage, restricted flow and secure connections before relying on it for crop irrigation.
Irrigation system management
Good components cannot compensate for poor system design. Size pipework, zones and water supply for the required flow and pressure, and use suitable filtration where emitters or small waterways are vulnerable to debris.
Flush and inspect irrigation systems as appropriate to water quality and crop hygiene requirements.
Maintenance & storage
Inspect components periodically for blockage, wear, leaks or physical damage. Keep installation tools clean and dry between jobs and replace damaged components rather than relying on temporary fixes in production systems.

Unit price perThe Cool Pipe Dual-Layer Temperature Control Hose - 4mm x 30m is a dual-layer hose intended for compatible horticultural temperature-control and water-circulation installations.
This 4mm version is supplied in a 30m length and is suited to professional greenhouse, nursery and controlled-environment installations where correctly specified pipework forms part of a wider heating or cooling system.
Key benefits
Temperature-control pipework in horticulture
Water-based heating and cooling systems rely on suitable pipe sizing, flow and layout to transfer energy effectively. Use the 4mm Cool Pipe only where its size and connection method match the design of the complete system.
Pipe diameter affects flow resistance and available water volume, so changing hose size within an existing installation should be considered as part of the hydraulic design rather than treated as a simple substitution.
Planning the installation
Route hose runs to avoid unnecessary restriction, crushing and tight bends. Support pipework where required and protect it from sharp edges, vehicle routes and other sources of physical damage.
Before cutting a 30m coil, plan the route and allow for connections, changes of direction and service access. Clean, square cuts generally make fitting assembly easier and more reliable.
Connections & commissioning
Use fittings specifically compatible with the hose and system. Insert pipe fully into connections and follow the fitting manufacturer's assembly requirements. Do not assume that nominal diameter alone guarantees compatibility between different fitting systems.
After installation, fill and commission the system in a controlled manner and inspect joints for leaks. Confirm circulation through the intended zones before relying on the installation for crop temperature management.
System performance
The hose itself does not determine heating or cooling capacity. Water temperature, flow rate, pump performance, run length, heat-transfer arrangement and environmental conditions all influence the performance of the complete system.
Where temperature control is important to crop quality, monitor the relevant air, root-zone or water temperatures and adjust the complete system rather than relying on fixed operating assumptions.
Maintenance
Inspect accessible hose runs and connections periodically for leakage, abrasion, kinking or physical damage. Investigate unexpected changes in flow or temperature performance and keep pumps, filters and controls maintained according to their own requirements.

The Blue Fast-Flow Dripper Stake is designed for delivering irrigation water at the pot or plant position in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.
Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.
Key benefits
Point irrigation at container level
Dripper stakes position the water outlet close to the crop root zone, helping keep individual container irrigation organised. Insert the stake securely without damaging important roots and route the connected microtube so it is not kinked or under tension.
Actual delivered water depends on the upstream dripper, pressure, pipework and system design. Where a flow figure is stated for the product, verify irrigation uniformity under the operating conditions of the complete system.
Checking irrigation uniformity
Periodically compare output across representative pots, particularly at the beginning and end of irrigation lines. Investigate blocked outlets, damaged tube, pressure differences or displaced stakes if crop moisture becomes uneven.

The Creation Pro 25mm Washer is a 25mm irrigation component designed for sealing a compatible Creation Pro 25mm fitting assembly.
Creation Pro fittings are intended for building and maintaining organised horticultural water-distribution pipework where compatible components are assembled correctly and checked under operating pressure.
Key benefits
Maintaining a reliable fitting seal
The washer forms part of a compatible Creation Pro fitting assembly and should be clean, correctly seated and free from damage before the joint is tightened. A distorted, contaminated or worn sealing component can contribute to leakage.
When servicing an existing fitting, inspect the mating surfaces as well as the washer rather than automatically tightening the joint further.
Installing 25mm irrigation fittings
Use clean, compatible 25mm pipe and cut ends squarely with an appropriate pipe cutter. Remove dirt and damaged material from the connection area and assemble all components in the correct order.
Route pipework to avoid unnecessary tension, sharp bends and unsupported weight at fittings. Where lines cross working areas, protect them from vehicle, trolley or foot traffic.
Commissioning & leak checks
After assembly, pressurise the irrigation system gradually and inspect every new joint. Check for visible leakage, pipe movement and correct downstream water delivery before putting the zone into routine crop use.
A leak should be investigated by safely depressurising and inspecting the joint; repeated overtightening can damage components rather than solve an assembly problem.
System design & maintenance
Pipe size and fittings are only part of irrigation design. Available pressure, total flow demand, run length, elevation and downstream emitters all influence system performance. Expansion of an existing system should take these factors into account.
Inspect fittings periodically and replace cracked, distorted or damaged components. Keep spare washers, nuts and fittings clean so sealing surfaces are not contaminated before installation.

Cut it squarely with a suitable pipe cutter and make sure the connection area is clean and undamaged. Should the joint be tested after assembly?
Yes. Pressurise the system gradually and check the completed connection for leaks and movement. What should I do if a fitting leaks?
Depressurise the system and inspect pipe insertion, sealing components and fitting condition rather than simply applying more force. Can I add branches without checking system capacity?
No. Additional branches and outlets increase flow demand, so consider water supply, pressure, pipe sizing and the complete irrigation layout. How should spare fittings be stored?
Keep them clean and protected so threads, sealing surfaces and small components are not damaged or contaminated.
The Creation Pro 25mm Tee is a 25mm irrigation component designed for creating a branch connection in compatible 25mm irrigation pipework.
Creation Pro fittings are intended for building and maintaining organised horticultural water-distribution pipework where compatible components are assembled correctly and checked under operating pressure.
Key benefits
Creating a branch in the irrigation line
Use the tee to divide a compatible 25mm pipe run into a branch. When adding a branch, consider the additional downstream flow demand rather than assuming the existing supply and pipework can support any number of new outlets.
Plan the tee position so all three connected pipe sections are supported and can be serviced without excessive strain.
Installing 25mm irrigation fittings
Use clean, compatible 25mm pipe and cut ends squarely with an appropriate pipe cutter. Remove dirt and damaged material from the connection area and assemble all components in the correct order.
Route pipework to avoid unnecessary tension, sharp bends and unsupported weight at fittings. Where lines cross working areas, protect them from vehicle, trolley or foot traffic.
Commissioning & leak checks
After assembly, pressurise the irrigation system gradually and inspect every new joint. Check for visible leakage, pipe movement and correct downstream water delivery before putting the zone into routine crop use.
A leak should be investigated by safely depressurising and inspecting the joint; repeated overtightening can damage components rather than solve an assembly problem.
System design & maintenance
Pipe size and fittings are only part of irrigation design. Available pressure, total flow demand, run length, elevation and downstream emitters all influence system performance. Expansion of an existing system should take these factors into account.
Inspect fittings periodically and replace cracked, distorted or damaged components. Keep spare washers, nuts and fittings clean so sealing surfaces are not contaminated before installation.

The Creation Pro 25mm Straight Connector is a 25mm irrigation component designed for joining two compatible 25mm irrigation pipe sections in a straight run.
Creation Pro fittings are intended for building and maintaining organised horticultural water-distribution pipework where compatible components are assembled correctly and checked under operating pressure.
Key benefits
Joining straight pipe runs
Use the straight connector where two compatible 25mm pipe sections need to continue on the same alignment. Cut pipe ends squarely, remove obvious damage or debris and insert the pipe fully into the fitting before securing the assembly.
A straight joint should not be used to compensate for poor pipe alignment or a forced bend; support the pipework so the connection is not under constant side load.
Installing 25mm irrigation fittings
Use clean, compatible 25mm pipe and cut ends squarely with an appropriate pipe cutter. Remove dirt and damaged material from the connection area and assemble all components in the correct order.

The Creation Pro 25mm Elbow is a 25mm irrigation component designed for creating a 90-degree change of direction in compatible 25mm irrigation pipework.
Creation Pro fittings are intended for building and maintaining organised horticultural water-distribution pipework where compatible components are assembled correctly and checked under operating pressure.
Key benefits
Changing pipe direction cleanly
Use the elbow to route compatible 25mm pipework through a right-angle change of direction without forcing the pipe into an excessively tight bend. This can help create tidier irrigation layouts around benches, beds and fixed structures.
Allow enough pipe length on both sides of the elbow so the connection can seat fully without tension.
Installing 25mm irrigation fittings
Use clean, compatible 25mm pipe and cut ends squarely with an appropriate pipe cutter. Remove dirt and damaged material from the connection area and assemble all components in the correct order.

The Irrigation Back-Plate Elbow is designed for forming a compatible right-angle irrigation connection in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.
Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.
Key benefits
Building reliable irrigation connections
Use the fitting only with compatible pipework and connection sizes. Cut pipe squarely where required, seat the fitting fully and avoid side-loading connections with tight bends or unsupported pipe.
After installation, pressurise the system and inspect the joint for leakage before putting the irrigation zone into routine service.
Irrigation system management
Good components cannot compensate for poor system design. Size pipework, zones and water supply for the required flow and pressure, and use suitable filtration where emitters or small waterways are vulnerable to debris.
Flush and inspect irrigation systems as appropriate to water quality and crop hygiene requirements.
Maintenance & storage
Inspect components periodically for blockage, wear, leaks or physical damage. Keep installation tools clean and dry between jobs and replace damaged components rather than relying on temporary fixes in production systems.

The Arrow-S Dripper Stake is designed for delivering irrigation water at the pot or plant position in professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems.
Reliable irrigation depends on matching emitters, stakes, pipework and installation tools correctly so water is delivered consistently and connections remain secure.
Key benefits
Point irrigation at container level
Dripper stakes position the water outlet close to the crop root zone, helping keep individual container irrigation organised. Insert the stake securely without damaging important roots and route the connected microtube so it is not kinked or under tension.
Actual delivered water depends on the upstream dripper, pressure, pipework and system design. Where a flow figure is stated for the product, verify irrigation uniformity under the operating conditions of the complete system.
Checking irrigation uniformity
Periodically compare output across representative pots, particularly at the beginning and end of irrigation lines. Investigate blocked outlets, damaged tube, pressure differences or displaced stakes if crop moisture becomes uneven.
Irrigation system management
Good components cannot compensate for poor system design. Size pipework, zones and water supply for the required flow and pressure, and use suitable filtration where emitters or small waterways are vulnerable to debris.
Flush and inspect irrigation systems as appropriate to water quality and crop hygiene requirements.
Maintenance & storage
Inspect components periodically for blockage, wear, leaks or physical damage. Keep installation tools clean and dry between jobs and replace damaged components rather than relying on temporary fixes in production systems.
