I just finished my Irrigation Wise book and hope people will find it helpful. Please send me any questions you may have.

Well let's start with the drip system, this is what waters all your plants and trees.  There are four different sizes of tubing, the .620 which has a green strip on the tube, .700 which is just a black tube, .720 which has a blue strip on the tube which is so close to .700 you can use the same fitting on both and people call 1/2" tubing. The .940 which has a gray strip and is call 3/4" tubing. So when you need a fitting like a tee or 90 you look at your tubing and see if it has a color strip, if it has a green strip then you know you need a .620 fitting which has a green color ends. These tubing's you can get at any box store or hardware store and if you have a irrigation store in town. These are all compression fitting which don't need any glue.
Any questions so far?

Irrigation information

My name is Bruce and I have been in the irrigation business for 10 + years in Arizona.  I have sold irrigation supplies to home owners to large commercial jobs. I have worked the sales counter and heard all the problems that can happen to a irrigation system. The number one problem that I hear is, " How to work my irrigation timer or controller." I have written a handbook on irrigation supplies and how they work, from backflows to sprinkler heads and drip emitters.
    So, if you have a question on any of this please ask.
This is my first blog and I will start writing more on irrigation system real soon.
Hope to hear your questions
