Riser Connection Kit
Convenient kit converts underground sprinklers and 1/2" risers to water-saving Drip irrigation. All-in-one unit provides 30 PSI pressure regulation and 200-mesh filter screen for optimal Drip system performance.
Saving up to 80% over sprinkler watering, Drip systems apply water directly to the root zone for healthier plants. In most instances, owners of Rain Bird 1800 Series pop-up sprinklers will make the conversion without digging.
Kit will replace all pop-up sprinklers with a 1/2" threaded bottom inlet. If you have another brand dig out and remove old sprinkler and thread kit to existing 1/2" male fitting. Easy Fit Tee tubing connector allows for assembly to any 1/2" or 5/8" Drip tubing.

Note: A drip system needs to be operated on a separate zone than spray heads and rotors. When using the Riser Connection Kit to convert a zone to drip, either convert all spray heads or rotors on that zone to drip or cap off the spray heads and rotors that are not converted to drip.
Tip: Minimum operating pressure for a drip system is 15 psi, maximum is 25-30 psi. The Faucet Connection Kit and Riser Connection Kit each contain a 25-30 psi regulator to reduce higher pressures. These connection kits also incorporate a 150-200 mesh filter to protect the tubing emitters.
CAUTION: Not using the pressure regulator and filter may damage your system.
