Product Description
-------------------
Rain Bird CNV182EMS Drip Irrigation Sprinkler Conversion Kit,
1800 Series Pop-Up to 6 Drip Emitters with 1/4” Tubing. Kit
converts underground sprinklers in landscaped areas to
water-saving Drip irrigation emitters. Easily installed in
minutes, this kit waters flower beds, shrubs, and more with
pinpoint efficiency. All-in-one unit provides 30 psi pressure
regulation, and 200-mesh filter screen for optimal Drip system
performance. Saving up to 40% over sprinkler watering, Drip
systems apply water directly to the root zone for ier,
faster-growing s, longer lasting blooms, and greener leaves.
Since you won't be watering the surrounding soil, you'll also
have fewer weeds to pull. In most instances, owners of Rain Bird
1800 Series pop-up sprinklers (#1 installed sprinkler head by
professional installers) will make the conversion without
digging. To install kit simply unscrew the old sprinkler head,
screw on the retro fit head and manifold, attach tubing to
manifold and cut to length. Insert chosen emitter into end of
tubing; use stake to hold tubing and place near the root zone of
your s. Each retro-fit conversion head will replace pop-up
sprinklers with a 1/2” threaded bottom inlet. Dig out old
sprinkler and thread on retro-fit assembly; flush system to
remove any debris before adding tubing or emitters. Each kit
contains (1) pressure-compensating 6-outlet manifold, (1) 1800
retro-fit spray head with filter and pressure regulator, (1) 50’
roll of 1/4” Drip distribution tubing; (6) stakes to hold tubing
and direct the flow at each (3) 1.0 gallon per hour black
emitters, (3) 2.0 gallon per hour red emitters. You can cap off
any additional unused spray heads using Rain Bird’s model
1800CAPS (sold separately). Rain Bird “The Intelligent Use of
