Aqua Hub Limited offers a Greenhouse Drip Kit that can be utilized to water crops in greenhouses. The package varies according to the size of the greenhouse and the crops planted. Greenhouse Drip Kit is suitable for many farmers because drip line irrigation is widely regarded as one of the best irrigation systems for greenhouses. Most of the time, the Greenhouse Drip Kit price is included in the greenhouse cost we provide to our clients. If you already have a greenhouse, we can also provide you with the kit.
Key components of our greenhouse drip kit
Drip lines, the Filtration Unit, and Main and Sub Main Pipe Connection are the most critical drip kit components. Drip lines allow water and nutrients to be delivered directly to the root zone in the greenhouse. The Filtration Unit purifies the water by filtering out impurities that could clog the emitters. The size of the irrigation system to be installed determines the type of irrigation water filter to be used. You can use a screen filter or a disc filter. Drip lines should be served by main pipes that link to the source of water used for irrigation on the farm. The main pipe to be utilized might be of two types: HDPE pipes or PVC pipes.
- Water Tank
- Tank Stand
- Water pipes
- Tank Connection
- Filtration System
- Main Pipe Connection
- Sub-Main Pipe
- Pipe to Drip Connections (Start connectors and Control Valves)
- Drip Lines
- End Lines (Drip Ends)
The tank stand can either be wooden or metallic. It all depends on the farmer’s preference and convenience, although metallic ones will endure longer.
