Netafim Techline DL Landscape Dripper Tubing - 17mm Diameter - 12" Emitter Spacing - 92GPH Flowrate Per Emitter
Product Overview
Irrigation failures in densely planted landscapes often go unnoticed until the turf or high value ornamentals begin to wilt, leading to costly plant replacements and client dissatisfaction. When summer temperatures spike and project deadlines loom, the pressure to deliver a reliable subsurface solution increases. Supply chain delays often leave installers scrambling for inferior alternatives that risk root intrusion or emitter clogging. Planning your inventory with genuine Netafim Techline DL ensures you avoid these system shutdowns and failed inspections, keeping your projects on schedule and your crews moving forward during the peak of the season.
This tubing features pressure compensating emitters that deliver a precise flow rate regardless of elevation changes or pressure fluctuations, outperforming generic drip lines that struggle with uneven distribution. The dual large outlet design provides an added layer of security against debris, significantly reducing the labor required for long term maintenance and system flushing. By choosing a professional grade product built for longevity, you maintain a competitive edge through reduced callbacks and a reputation for installing systems that withstand harsh soil environments.

- Greenhouse and nursery operations
- Erosion control and stormwater systems
Installation Notes
Installers should use standard 17mm insert fittings and ensure the system is equipped with a 120 mesh filter and a pressure regulator set within the 7 to 70 PSI range. It is recommended to install air vacuum relief valves at the highest point of each zone to prevent soil suction upon system shutdown. Always flush the laterals thoroughly before installing the end caps to remove any construction debris that could impact emitter performance.
