Automatic watering is a system that takes water from the tap to your plants using a simple network of narrow pipes and outlets hidden in the garden. This can be controlled manually or by a timer. An automatic watering system takes the work out of watering. It waters your plants properly all through the season, even if you are away. We show you how to create your own watering system using Hozelock’s easy to install and simple to use drip system. Then we show you how to make it work automatically by combining it with a Hozelock timer. If you are looking for a simple system to water your container plants when you are away on holiday or a sophisticated system to water your entire garden, you’ll find that an automatic watering system helps you manage your garden much more easily, allowing you to spend more time doing the things you want, rather than the things you have to.
Automatic watering is a simple network of pipes that carry the water around the garden, and outlets that deliver it to the plants. Most systems can be installed in a few hours and all can be extended as your garden grows. The Hozelock automatic watering system has been designed to be as easy as possible to understand, buy and install.
The tap connection is vital. It connects the automatic watering system to the mains water supply. There are three different ways to make this connection. Always use a pressure reducer to control the water pressure to ensure the best performance. All installations below can be automated by adding a Hozelock water computer.
Hozelock’s 13mm tubing is supple, long lasting and UV resistant. Use elbows, t-pieces and joiners to make the network. Use wall clips and stakes to secure it in place.
The 4mm micro tubing takes water from the supply tube to the plants. Hozelock thick walled tubing is kink, crush and UV resistant. Use with t-pieces and in-line connectors and secure in place with stakes.
You can fit any combination of Drippers, Microjets and Mini Sprinklers, depending on the plants and where you want to water. Choose the best drippers for your needs from the table below. The length of time your system needs to run for will depend on several factors, eg, the time of year, the weather and the type of plants. Experiment until you get the best performance from your system.
Kits include everything you need to install your own system If you still don’t know where to start or you want the convenience of a kit where everything is supplied in one box then pick one of our starter sets.
