      I made a video similar to this one, that explains the accessories commonly used for building a drip irrigation system. For beginning "irrigationists", this video sums it up well. Skip to 2:48 in this video ua-cam.com/video/j-j2J9lL_Sc/v-deo.html.

    I have watched tons of videos on drip irrigation & still found it intimidating - this is the first video that made it seem so simple (honestly!). Love it! Appreciated how multiple scenarios were covered such as goof holes, containers, winterizing the system etc. thank you for the attention to detail!

    I miss those "getting off track minutes" viewers are forced to sit through as the "expert" drones on about all the possible scenarios that might come up found in all the other DYI video's. No wait, no I don't. Outstanding vid!

    thank you! probably the easiest, simplest video on drip irrigation I've seen yet. I avoided drip irrigation for a long time because it used to be more expensive. I'm learning that it's not as expensive anymore and so I'm ready to jump in. Only, I got stopped up at anything more than tubes, connectors and emitters. Thank you for sharing the basics for this beginner at DI.

    My first post. After reviewing several you tube videos on installing drip irrigation systems, i finally worked up a flow design. Very simple in nature but more importantly, i found the confidence to do it myself. Ordered everything i need and I'm now just waiting for the items to arrive. Appreciate your easy to watch instructions.

    Like many others said, thanks for a succinct video. The post production must have taken lots of time. I’ve been using drip systems for a long time, and am on our 3rd house where I’ve retrofitted the zone sprinkler system for drip. I love the idea of going up through the bottom of the planter. Now I know what I’ll be doing this week.

    Agreed…no nonsense help plus the first video that shows remote water valve away from house an mounted to a 4x4. I’m doing this also, and will have the main hose bib connections mounted to a plywood board as a base to keep things from moving around. The remote connection protects against big leaks at the house foundation.
