Truly one of the best presenters explaining in clear, concise way. I learnt and understood more in your 10mins then I have watching 10+other videos! A new subscriber here and can't wait to go try it. Cheers,
Great video! I am just wondering what would happen to the pipes during winter, when the water freezes will it damage the pipes? Shouldn’t there be any system to drain the water from the pipes?
You can do the same LPH test as per the Easy As Guide for rain water tanks, which will define the number of sprinklers or drippers you can put in to your system. The pressure should still be fine however you may find that you would need less sprinklers if the pressure is slightly less.
I would not use quick connects on the manifold connections to the irrigation lines. Doing a LPM test and using quick disconnects doesn't make a lot of sense. If flow rate may be an issue then don't restrict a semi-perment system with quick disconnects.Was there a backflow preventer somewhere?
Check it out at 0:24 . What he just said is 100% WRONG, Mitre 10 should have a Engineer like me to review the technical script before make any video. This one goes for free. WATER PRESSURE???? he is not measuring any pressure, but flow... Pressure is something like Force/Area.... Flow is Volume/time....Thanks
Francisco Junior yes, you are technically correct. However flow is directly proportional to pressure assuming constant surface area and length of pipe.
@@pleayotovaranonte4214 No really, a gravity tank for example has 10 kgf/m2 of pressure... at the same time when all the taps of a house are closed, the flow is zero... Now if u open all taps, the pressure will be the same, no matter how quick or slow u fill a bucket up. But i've got a jest what u said..
