Spray Irrigation

Water is distributed through the air over a broad area.

Factors affecting spray irrigation are:

• Misting
• Overspray
• Wind drift
• Water runoff
• Water Collection on garden mulch
• Easily vandalized
• Promotion of plant disease

Drip Irrigation

Drip irrigation overcomes the water wastage problems and can save upto 60% water.

Drip irrigation allows for efficient irrigation by targeting the root zone and dispersing water at ground level so it is not susceptible to the above elements. Dripperlines can be used in every application, from irrigating small home garden beds, to an advance sub-surface system for lawns.

Netafim's dripperlines are extruded from polyethylene and are inserted with internal drippers which are molded into the inner wall of the poly tube during the extrusion process. The result is a full range of drip tubes in brown, black and purple to suit any irrigation application.The advantages of using drip systems over spray systems are as follows:

• Water savings
  - Eliminates evaporation
  - Eliminates wind drift
  - Eliminates 'over spray'
• Reduces plant disease
• Reduced weed growth
• Reduces vandalism
• Aesthetically pleasing
• Safe to use with waste water
