Water extraction points / water pipes / irrigation in the garden - ideas

Unfortunately, there are still uncertainties/questions. So in the sketch, 12 PROS-04-PRS40-CV housings + 12 sprinklers + connection angles + flexible pipes + T-pieces on DN25 pipes are needed. So per yellow point already over €30 and the left area is not yet "planned" at all. And the PE-HD pipe.

[*]Would you make different circles for the sprinklers? How would you divide that? With a 4-way distributor: 2 sprinkler circles and 2 circles for drip hoses etc.?
[*]Are there ready-made distributor boxes directly from Hunter?
[*]Which connectors are needed for connecting the Hunter Pro Flex hose to the DN32 PE pipe?
[*]Or would a DN25 pipe as a sprinkler circle also suffice?

I think it will still take a while until I fully understand the variety of components. In the above example, it would also be enough at first that the yellow points are connected with the PE pipe. Then you would only have to dig up later and connect the sprinklers.

Thanks again

do you bury your distribution boxes in the ground or are they "above ground"?

Distributor boxes go into the ground. Lid just below ground level.

Per sprinkler the following is required: 1 x connection set DN32 1 x sprinkler head If you want to connect the sprinklers old-fashioned with swing joints, that is also possible. Ready-made sets are a bit more expensive but save a lot of time during installation. Check out MONTAGEEINHEIT FÜR HUNTER MP-ROTATOR, 32 MM (1") PLUG&Rechtsanwältin EXPERT at DVS I recommend the Expert version because of the unidelta connectors.

You use DN32 pipe everywhere. You have to plan the circuits already now. End caps must be put on the ends. Then you can dig up and connect later. But be aware that you will have to dig up almost a meter per sprinkler to connect it... For you, I would make 3 circuits for lawn. Back, corner and side. Then drip irrigation 2-3 pieces.

Use a 6-valve box right away: 6ER-VENTILBOX HUNTER PGV MIT DURCHFLUSSREGULIERUNG UND DRUCKLUFTANSCHLUSS, 32 MM (1") PLUG&Rechtsanwältin EXPERT at DVS

Connectors and PE-HD pipe are available cheaply at Wolf.

Things are slowly becoming clearer. I need to sit down in the next few days and plan the sprinklers. why would you do the corner at the top left separately? You do mean the lawn, right? And which area separately? In the very corner there will be a raised planting bed. There, rather a drip hose or something like that will be used.

I would distribute the lawn area into 3 circles. This makes sense due to the different sun exposure. You also have reserves in the circles. In the areas with drip irrigation, you only run the Pe-HD pipe from the valve and connect the drip hose there. Best is XFS. It can be buried or laid above ground. It is also very pressure-resistant so that you do not need a pressure reducer with the mentioned pump. Theoretically, the maximum length for the drip hose is 100 meters. This way you can also combine areas. Where there is higher water demand, you can lay the hose in a ring or double. XFS always has 2.3 liters/h every 30 cm.

Hi, I did some rough planning and divided the garden irrigation into 3 zones. Blue zone, purple zone, and red zone. Each with its own supply lines. I branched off the red zone with a yellow supply line after the distribution box. I hope everything is somewhat clear.


and others: what do you think? Thanks a lot

I also did a rough calculation; just for the connection sets and sprinkler heads, it's already nearly €1000. Still without PE pipe, distribution box, control system, drip hose. I have to think carefully whether it's worth it to me and if I can get approval for it at home ;)

But I definitely want to lay the PE pipe, that doesn’t cost the earth.
