IMPORTANT NOTES:
Always leave the water tap turned
on or replenish the water tank in
good time.
Even when it is raining.
With longer interruptions to the water
supply, the roots can suck the water
out of the sensor. Don’t be fooled by
a dry ground surface. The water
spreads underground like an onion.
Often only the ground surface under
the dripper hose is visibly moist.

TIPS when going on
vacation
•
Install the system at least 10 days
before.
•
Support the plants from
falling down and do not place in
subsoil susceptible to damp.
•
Eventual water leaks must also
not cause any other damage (e. g.
flow into cellars or the like)
The
Tropf-Blumat watering
system
has been specially
developed for outdoor
plants.
Therefore please do
not use indoors.
Tropf-Blumat does not
turn off?
POSSIBLE SOURCE OF THE
PROBLEM:
Membrane has too little tension
(can occur after cold nights).
SOLUTION:
Close the setting screw
approx.
1
/
2
mark.
No water comes out of
the dripper hose?
POSSIBLE SOURCE OF THE
PROBLEM:
Hose is blocked, stuck or
supply buckled.
SOLUTION:
Withdraw the dripper hose a little
and knead the compressed part
between the fingers.
The sensor runs out of
water?
POSSIBLE SOURCES OF THE
PROBLEM:
Air has entered the system,
poorly screwed together, buck-
led dripper hose, poor ground
contact, interrupted water supply.
SOLUTION:
Refill the ceramic sensor with
water and screw together
tightly up to the marking ring.
The watering diameter is
too small?
POSSIBLE SOURCE OF THE
PROBLEM:
Dripper hose is too short.
The water therefore reaches the
ceramic sensor too quickly.
SOLUTION:
Extend dripper hose to 8 cm.
