Networks

Many SpritzWiz™ systems can operate off a single garden hose line with minimal or no loss in water pressure since the flow requirements of each one is so small. Each one can be independently operated and controlled. Connect each SpritzWiz™ with its own “T” connector to a source line.

Sprinklers

The SpritzWiz™ system comes complete with an impulse sprinkler head that can provide up to 3,000 square feet of adjustable 0°-360° coverage. Also, it can be outfitted with many other readily available types of sprinkler heads, depending on your application.

In addition, you can mount a full flow manifold with multiple outlets to run up to eight high projection micro sprinklers, each running at rates as low as 1⁄8 GPH. It can also mount lines of drippers with drip rates well below 1/25 GPH. Ultra-low rates are possible because the system delivers powerful intermittent pulses allowing larger orifice sizes to be
used that won't clog.

Water Line

The SpritzWiz™ system comes ready to connect to your garden hose. You can also substitute small tubing for the bulky garden hose because of the low flow options. Small tubing can be cut to size and push-in tube connectors added to make networks for either sprinklers or drip.

To switch over simply remove the adapter and snap-on control valve from the SpritzWiz™ irrigation system. Be sure to keep the sponge filter and screen washer for the new assembly. Obtain two push-in tube connectors with compatible garden hose nut adapters. Insert the sponge filter and screen washer into one of these nut adapters and connect it to one of the intake ports. Connect the other nut adapter to your water source. Select tubing with at least 75 PSI working pressure. A good choice is polyethylene 1/4" tubing, the kind used for refrigerator ice makers. Another good choice is Parker Parflex®
black polyethylene tubing. It has UV inhibitors and is better for outdoor use.

Flow Control

Small tubing for water lines also offers many convenient advantages for flow control. The simplest method is to simply constrict the tubing with a mini C-clamp. Clamping offers the same precision as expensive needle valves but with less fouling. You can add a protective cover to the tubing at the point of clamping by sleeving a segment of larger tubing over it.

An easy-to-make elegant clamp can be used with your 1/4" tubing, drill a 1/4" hole across the middle of a short 1/2"
diameter brass threaded shaft. Thread your 1/4" tubing through this hole. Now screw on two opposing 1/2" nylon wing nuts to clamp the tubing.

Boosting the Pulse Pressure Above 45 PSI

If you have enough water pressure in your system you can boost the power of the water pulse by using one or both of the included latex rubber bands to work in tandem with the agnets. These rubber bands are 7" x 1/8" and are commonly available at office supply or hardware stores by the bag full. Make a choke loop around the pull top and stretch the other end of the rubber band around the vertical intake port. Each rubber band will add an additional 10 PSI to the water pulse. If the second rubber band is used place it on the other side to keep the forces in balance. Rubber bands will be affected by direct sunlight. Can Bandz™brand rubber bands will last a little longer
than the other brands. Replace the rubber bands as needed, about every month or so.
