Connections that affect your order

The product page and the manual agree: the manifolds assemble for beds exactly 2, 3 or 4 feet wide, and the drip tapes reach up to 10 feet. For a wider bed, Epic refers you to its customer support. The Starter Kit includes a backflow preventer to fit at the faucet if your hose does not already have one.

The Starter includes 50 feet of 16 mm main tubing; the Expansion includes 25 feet. Each kit also lists eight drip tapes up to 10 feet long. Keep those tape runs separate from the tubing route between the source and bed.

Include backflow protection required by your water supplier or local authority. A filter removes particles; it does not automatically provide backflow protection.

Maintenance and restart

For a leaking joint, weak flow, blocked nozzle or seasonal shutdown, follow the drip maintenance and winterizing checks. Use your kit’s own instructions below for taking it apart, cleaning and storage.
