Agrifim Spray-to-Drip Conversion Kit
-
What is the Agrifim Spray-to-Drip Conversion Kit? This retrofit kit is designed to help you take a sprinkler line that has spray heads on it, and convert it, quickly and easily, into a drip line.
Why the Agrifim Conversion Kit? This kit, also called the Universal Drip Conversion Kit, is universal across all manufacturers of spray heads. The only other conversion kit we know of is the Rain Bird conversion system, which only works with Rain Bird spray bodies.
Compare the Agrifim kit and the Rain Bird system:
Agrifim Kit Rain Bird System Sold as a kit Sold a la carte Works with ANY spray body Works ONLY with SOME Rain Bird spray bodies Sits "at grade" after installation is complete Sits 3" above grade after installation is complete Pressure regulator built into body Pressure regulator built into body 150-mesh filters built into the body and the tee fittings 200-mesh filter built into the body Uses Smart-Loc locking fittings (easiest on your hands) Uses compression fittings (harder to install) We carry the Agrifim Universal Spray-to-Drip Retrofit Kit and the caps to close off the rest of the spray caps on your sprinkler line, too.
Note: You'll need to purchase the dripper line separately, as well as any additional fittings you might need (like tees and elbows) to lay out your tubing. See the Installation Tips tab for more information.

Why convert at all?
Great question! Spray sprinkler heads are less efficient at getting the water where you want it. They lose water to evaporation and wind, and because of their high water-application rate, they're more likely to create run-off from overwatering. Drip irrigation puts water directly in the root zone of your plants, and with its very low water-application rate, you have to really try to overwater.
