How do I get water to a remote
area of my garden ?
See diagram 9 - use good quality1/2" hose to start system up to 50m from the
tap
H
ow do I turn the drippers on
a
nd off ?
Turn off water to make easier, then close cap over dripper outlet
How much water should the
plants be given ?
Depends upon temperature, weather, plant type and season. Compost 1cm down
should be kept moist, but not waterlogged. Always ensure compost is able to
drain. As a guide 5 minutes, twice per day is ok in summer for a 30cm pot.
Adjust watering duration up and down according to the plants requirments.
My plants have different
watering needs, how do I
ensure that they all get the
correct amount of water ?
Put more than 1 dripper into pots containing plants that have higher watering
needs.
How can I reduce the amount of
tap water I use ?
Combine AquaPod with Hozelock Water Store Gels to reduce water waste even
further. Combine with the Hozelock water butt pump to use stored water - NB.
When used with the water butt pump it is only possible to combine 6 AquaPods
(vs. 9 when used with a mains water supply)
One of my drippers is not
watering
Contact Hozelock for a replacement

Hose too stiff - bring indoors for 15 mins to allow hose to soften, then rewind
