Hi, I’m trying to get more even water distribution I’ve tried a submersible pump but it didn’t give me what I was looking for. So I did some research and think I wanna use a demand pump with an adjustable pressure switch, and I wanna use a pressure tank. This is what I wanna put on my setup I need to know what order to put them in and if I need to add or subtract somethings

Demand pump like a shurflo or seaflo
Sprinkler control panel
Solenoid valve
Filter
Check valve
Union to disconnect the pump
Pressure tank or accumulator tank
Flora flex manifold 8 port
1/4” drip tubing
Netafim pressure compensating emitters

I have 24 plants

Is this the route to go for even watering? Or is their a better way.

You nailed it :+1:t2:

I am sure two years from now, you will either find improvements/efficiencies but your set on a solid foundation✌🏻

Happy growing! I want to build your system! That shit is fun for me

I bought the same one but mine is from a company called orbit I paid $11 on Amazon. I also ordered a other pressure regulator with a pressure gauge all in one that comes in today and I wanna see if it helps with my set up. I wondering if I need a vacuum breaker don’t know much about them but I see them used in irrigation systems.

I do install stuff like that on regular water systems. Hammer arrestor for normal indoor plumbing. Keep vacuums from happening.

I would guess thats a must have for your system…
