Beyond frustrated and looking for help with something that should be so simple. I already have one drip lock system running fine with no leaking.
I have a second system I’ve got connected that is consistently leaking. I’ve tried recutting and reseating the indivisible lines for all the drip heads and they still leak. I made sure to turn them and lock in place.
I’ve restarted them all tons and tons of times. Also reseated my manifold connections and one somehow blasted off the other extension . Must have flooded my area 10 times trying to get this right!
I have a 25lbs I lrsssure regulator on the pump. I did order a pressure testing device to screw onto my end cap to verify Its working. Weird part is I have another run of extensions tbst tees off of this one and it doesn’t leak… and it’s running on the same res and pump… so that really makes me think it’s not the pressure regulator unless I just got lucky that there’s no leaks on that side….
I’ll try that next but does anyone have any recommendations? Sick of hand watering want to get this going.
How bad? Like mine leak so bad a 2min cycle will soak up two beach towels. Also I had two extensions blow off each other… then I lost gallons before I got back to my pump.
How recently did you get them? Wondering if they had a bad batch. My previous batch doesn’t leak at all
I got mine last fall and they look like a different company.
I had mine flood the tent a couple inches. I bailed with a bowl and then mopped up with beach towels. I am going back to the ones you push into the lines. The problem is I need to heat them and the micro wave died in the grow area.
I thought it would make the new set up easier but not!
With the other fittings with barbs, if the feed line is tight and I can’t push the barbs in I put the lines in hot water until I can force them in. They cool down and that fitting is there to stay.
