If you are using 3inch filter, you will need to buy 3inch socket and bushing as shown below.

If it 2inch then you don't need bushing just ask for 2inch socket....I will advise you go with the filter to those into plumbing material to avoid confusion.

On how to maintain and insight about it check my IG. If your water source is stream or river, compulsorily you will need filter so that your drip tape will last and your crop will enjoy uniform water dropping from each emitter.

When you start pumping machine and it taking longer to load "notice" your water seal is about to spoil. When you notice drip tape is not full, either your filter is dirty or your water seal is not good again. When your water is low, rate at which dirty will be clogging your filter will be fast. Always makes sure your suction hose don't touch ground!

this should help

Farmerakinloye6:
I will start with my own, though a little bit old school , I will also show new school too. If you want to install irrigation system,this should come to your mind, your water source and farm topography. After that, design how (sketch) the system will look like.this is My own sketch below

Boss,

Is it possible to use 2inch PVC pipe in those areas that you used hose (see my red arrows in the attached picture)?

If yes, are there any disadvantages using PVC in those areas?

I will appreciate all contributions.

Thank you

yes, that means you are doing permanent installation which doesn't make sense. What if you want to modify?

Okay I see. Thank you very much

Good evening boss, do you have a short video or pictures of how to connect drip tapes to lay flat pipes instead of the PVC pipes as depicted in your illustration.
It appears easier to disconnect and reuse any time and location wise.
Thanking you in advance.

read carefully! I don't promise flat and drip, what I promised is fixing burst PVC which is now available on my channel. Connecting drip and flat hose will be soon.

OK, copy that! Regards

Below is tap, rubber washer and drip connector. Drip connector is use to join Drip should Incase there is burst or hole on it.

Hello, please anybody that can supply me with rubber washer and tap for drip irrigation? Please let me know ASAP

There is white also and it's the thickest

Farmerakinloye6:
to my knowledge there is 3 type of flat hose; blue hose@100meters 18k, black hose@100 meters 36k and green hose 29k here in akure. At the moment am using green hose because it is thick and can also serve black hose function.

thank you sir!

1. I place the layflat on ridges to know where I will do ridge that will connect all the ridges,so the layflat can balance. 2. I connect all the ridges.

1. I peg the layflat so it can be firm. 2. Punch the layflat to create hole for tap. The video is available on my channel.

1. I insert the tap to layflat 2. Insert the drip to tap 3. End drip tape by knot it. After that is to peg the drip tape to fall in (on ridges straight) line. It available on my YouTube channel, Some short video will also be available on IG shortly too..

I close one end of layflat by using end cap, draw rubber,pvc gum and pvc. The video will be available tomorrow on my YouTube channel.To be continue......
