L’irrigation goutte à goutte me convient-elle ?

Robert Walle

Extrait:

Lors de l’installation de systèmes de basse pression, chaque extrémité terminale des rangées de gaine perforée est pliée vers l’arrière de trois cm. Une petite partie de la gaine perforée est utilisée pour couvrir et maintenir le pli. Ouvrez la ligne pour nettoyer le système, puis refermez-la en répétant le processus. Cela fonctionne bien avec les systèmes à basse pression et séries de gaines perforées plus courtes. Les systèmes plus grands et à haute pression utilisent de petites vannes pour rincer les conduites. Attacher ou fermer la gaine perforée ne permettra pas le nettoyage.
