Gardena 13500-20 drip irrigation system

The GARDENA Micro-Drip-Irrigation Hedge/Bush Set (25 m) provides water-efficient irrigation for hedges, bushes, shrubs and front-garden plant rows. The Ready-2-Use set contains all components needed for immediate installation: connect the Master Unit 1000 to the tap, attach the 25 m Drip Irrigation Line and lay it to your plants. The Drip Irrigation Line can be installed above ground using the included Peg Pipes or hidden below ground; its integrated labyrinth technology with root barrier prevents clogging. Every 30 cm a pressure-compensating Drip Head delivers a constant 1.6 litres/hour to ensure uniform watering regardless of height differences. The system is compatible with separately available 13 mm Quick & Easy connectors for flexible expansion and reconfiguration, and can be combined with GARDENA Water Control units for automatic irrigation.

Advantages

The set saves water by delivering precise drip irrigation directly to plant roots and supports uniform moisture through pressure-compensating drip heads spaced at 30 cm. It is Ready-2-Use and simple to set up in three steps: connect to the tap, unroll the line and fix it with Peg Pipes. The Drip Irrigation Line is suitable for above- or below-ground installation thanks to integrated labyrinth technology and a root barrier, reducing the risk of clogging. Components use patented Quick & Easy connection technology and are reusable, enabling sustainable and flexible system expansion up to recommended lengths when combined with additional Micro-Drip-System parts.

Suitable for

• Irrigation of hedges and hedge rows up to 25 m
• Bushes, shrubs and linear plantings in front gardens

How to use

Connect the Master Unit 1000 to an outdoor tap, then attach the 25 m Drip Irrigation Line to the Master Unit. Lay the line along the hedge or plant row; if mounting above ground, fix it into place with the included Peg Pipes. If you choose to bury the line, place it below ground where it will remain out of sight and benefit from the labyrinth technology that reduces clogging. Ensure the line runs alongside the root zone so the pressure-compensating drip heads deliver 1.6 l/h directly to the plants.

Recommendations

For best results, design the layout before installation and test the system at low pressure. Extend the system with GARDENA 13 mm Quick & Easy connectors only; follow the manufacturer’s guidance for maximum recommended lengths when adding additional drip lines or placing the Master Unit centrally. Combine with a GARDENA Water Control for timed automatic irrigation to optimize water use and plant health.
