The Tanker® sub soil irrigation system has been specially developed for simple, effective watering of planters both in the home and garden. Incredibly simple to use, all Tanker® systems consist of a tank or reservoir positioned under the rootball of the plants and linked to the surface by a flexible or rigid filler pipe. Water is then transported from the tank to the soil as required via a specially designed Geotextile wick which works with any reasonably good soil or compost. The result? – the frequency of watering is halved so going on holiday is no longer a problem, the roots are larger, the plant is healthier, it lives longer, has more flowers and no water is wasted!
These irrigation cells come in 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 Litre sizes. They are split into 2 groups: 220mm diameter and 343mm diameter. They then vary in height within each group. Always use the biggest tank available for the planter which will ensure longer periods between filling. For extra large planters we can also supply modular systems - please contact us directly to discuss your requirements.
Irrigation Cells should be installed flat leaving around 100mm of compost between the base of the plant and the top of the Irrigation Cell. This gap is variable but should be no less than 40mm and no more than 200mm. If you are unsure then please feel free to contact us for advice. Full planting instructions are provided with purchase.
