What’s Included in a DIG Drip Kit?

A DIG drip kit typically includes all of the basic parts needed to start a small drip irrigation system. Depending on the kit, this may include 1/2-inch drip tubing, 1/4-inch micro tubing, drip emitters, fittings, tees, elbows, stakes, goof plugs, and end closures. Many kits also include a faucet connection, filter, and pressure regulator. Some DIG kits are designed for gardens or raised beds, while others are made for containers, patios, shrubs, or landscape plantings. The exact contents vary by kit, so check the product label to confirm coverage area, tubing length, emitter type, and whether a timer is included or sold separately

DIG Drip Irrigation Kits FAQs

Can DIG drip irrigation kits be connected to a garden hose faucet?

Most DIG drip kits are designed to connect directly to a standard outdoor garden hose faucet or hose bib. Some kits include a backflow preventer, filter, pressure regulator, and tubing adapter, while others may require certain pieces to be purchased separately. It’s best to confirm the kit’s faucet connection size and recommended pressure range before ordering.

How do I install a DIG drip irrigation kit?

Installing a DIG drip irrigation kit is easy enough for anyone when following the included instructions. The process usually involves connecting the faucet assembly first. After that, you’ll lay out the 1/2-inch drip tubing along the planting area, then cut and connect it with tees, elbows, or couplings as needed. Use stakes to hold tubing in place and punch holes wherever you need to insert emitters. Remember to cap the end of the main line, then turn on the water to check for leaks.

Can I expand a DIG drip irrigation kit later?

Many DIG drip watering kits can be expanded later by adding more tubing, fittings, and emitters to the system. Expansion is useful when you add new plants or containers to your landscape. Before expanding, make sure your water source has enough flow and pressure to support the extra outlets.
