FAQ

My tap timer makes a funny noise and does not open

If you are running a low-pressure drip system, you need to install an Air Release Valve (102646) at the highest point of your system and above your drippers.
This breaks this the air in the drip line and allows to suck in air through the air release valve and prevents the drippers from blocking due to dirt.
This also allows for the diaphragm to work properly.

Reviews

Don't bother.
In the past 18 months, I've gone through four of these. All of them either stopped turning on, stopped turning off or both. I've even returned one to Bunnings in that time and got a replacement. The last one broke today - it couldn't handle standard water pressure and broke, flooding the garden in the process. I realise you get what you pay for, but if I can't leave it unattended, it's useless.

This simple tap timer saved my bacon, or more accurately my tomatoes, capsicum, eggplant, herbs, and other decorative plants during the last end of year holiday period. I'm usually away over this period and it's a gamble as to what survives. This time, with the help of nightly waterings managed by the timer, I came home to a green and flourishing garden!

It's best if you set up a schedule and the let it go. If you try to change things around, then it can get a bit confusing and you need to be around to make sure a new program has been set properly.
