Fittings are an essential part of any piping system, especially fittings for irrigation circuits. The various models available are specific to each material used for the piping: whether it be flexible hoses, copper, PVC, PEX, multilayer, or seamless pipes. However, it is necessary to ensure that the different references match perfectly for the circuit to function correctly.
When installing the irrigation system, the goal is to have a setup that is both functional on a daily basis and adaptable to any change in configuration. Brass fittings are thus the most used for outdoor watering, since they allow for connections between elements of different natures (copper, steel, etc.). Polyethylene is also very practical, as this material is not susceptible to freezing or mold, making it perfect for watering. In addition to the diversity of materials, the models also differ in their respective functions. A tee fitting, for example, is used to modulate your water circuit according to your desires or your gardening needs. As for 90° elbow models, they allow for the installation of a sprinkler in the corner of your garden. Next, a coupling fitting enables you to join two pipes together to gain length. If you wish to expand your irrigation network, this tool is recommended. Finally, tee junction fittings allow connecting 3 pipes. This accessory increases the possibility of changing the configuration of the garden's irrigation system at will. The "Y" shaped models differ from the latter type only in a few details.
