Retrofit Drip Emitters
DIG’s single and multi-outlet drip emitters are designed to easily convert sprinkler risers into efficient, water saving drip irrigation systems. All of DIG’s multi-outlet drip emitters and kits are designed to retrofit a 1/2″ sprinkler riser and to operate at the original sprinkler system’s operating pressure, delivering equal flow over a wide range of pressures. Replace your overhead sprinkler irrigation with low-volume, multi-outlet drip irrigation, and save a significant amount of water by improving irrigation efficiency and lowering water runoff. For even more savings, check with your city for drip irrigation rebate program eligibility.
