Rain Bird RBY075S Drip Filter, 3/4"

I noticed right away that this product is going to work well in my somewhat complicated drip irrigation system. I running this filter in the actual garden hose (I cut the hose and bought some barb fittings to make it an inline filter prior to my drip system). After the filter the water goes through a pipe where I branch off to a spigot for a hose on my deck and then up to another spigot that runs a Y with two water timers that go off on opposite schedules as to keep good pressure. The system works like a charm, however, I have to watch the fall for freezing temps and I blow out the lines with an air compressor and remove the plastic water timers to prevent bursting. Here's a cool trick, use half inch drip line that then tee off to soaker hoses with a valve at the end of each one for easy clean out each year. This save money on all those expensive drip irrigation drippers that can clog but it takes a bit of work to find proper fittings, hose clamps, and I use a touch of 100 percent silicon in each fitting to insure no leaks....anyway, it works for me and was a lot cheaper than a full drip system. You can replace the soaker hoses every 3 to 6 years if you like yet I've run mine for 4 years with only a leak now and again that I use a fitting on to fix.

Perfect! This is exactly what I needed to filter out the sediment that flows from the irrigation canal I use to feed my drip lines. I have had issues with the drip lines because they flow slowly and have small inlets and outlets. They have been clogging all summer, and I tried a few solutions, but putting this filter in the middle of the line has proved to be a perfect move after a few weeks of testing. I needed a few adapters to get it to seamlessly get into the line, but if you have any sediment in a drip line, this is a perfect solution. It easily unscrews and is well built. I doubt I will have any issues for years to come.

These filters are effective and convenient to clean. Direct replacement for one of mine.

Arrived on time - well packaged - worked great - used on my Drip Irrigation system - having the pressure reducer installed with the filter makes installation easier

It works great. I probably should have done a bit more thinking before installing it, and put it before the anti-siphon valve, instead of immediately after. It would probably extend the life of the valve, which is a $50 solar powered timer type.

These are great

Out of the seven I bought two of them have failed. There is a white button on either side of the regulator that blows out..

This filter / pressure regulator is just perfect for drip systems. Most installations put a filter behind the valve. Many of these are made of polypropylene and are not rated for supply side pressure. Here's a trick not commonly shared. Put this filter / regulator behind a shutoff valve for servicing, then install your valves and install your drip systems. Guess what? you now are protecting not only your drip lines with a 200 micron filter and taking the pressure down to 30 #s , but your protecting your valves, all with one filter. This unit is rated for 150 #s, so unless you have really high pressure on your supply side, this will do the trick. This is available in a 1 inch size with 40 lb. regulation. If you install this model on a 3/4 in. line, you will just need two reducing adapters. I would also add a union, yes they are made in PVC, to make removal / installation easier.

Bon produit expédié rapidement

Hard to find this anywhere but Amazon. No HW store had it. You don’t need to replace it often but until you do, the system will not work at all.

Bonne qualité satisfait de l’achat

Good value just need to make sure you get the right fitting to attach in line bought an orbit timer to go with this and it is Malin to mail and make sure you get a coupler if you need it

All good - like new but at the warehouse deal price.
