Areas for Drip Emitters & Drip Spray
We classify areas for drip emitters and areas for drip spray in the same category in the Irrigation Manager. Both are represented by hatches when placed in a drawing.
For instructions, see our Place Area for Drip Emitters or Drip Spray page.;
Areas for Drip Emitters
Applicable for emitters, bubblers, popups, and multi-outlet emitters, an Area for Drip Emitters is intended for entire planted areas where each plant will receive drip emitters or bubblers. When installed, these areas will consist of above-grade 1/2-inch poly drip tubing with single-outlet emitters to each plant, either directly connected to the drip tubing or attached to the tubing with 1/4-inch distribution tubing to drip stakes.
Areas for Drip Spray
Areas for Drip Spray apply to planted areas that will receive virtual head-to-head coverage of drip spray. These areas consist of above-grade 1/2-inch poly drip tubing with spray outlet emitters directly on the tubing or attached to the tubing with 1/4-inch distribution tubing to drip stakes. For instructions, see our Place Area for Drip Emitters or Drip Spray documentation
