Installing an

distribution system is simple and is easily designed, installed and modified by
the homeowner or a professional irrigation installer.
You should ensure that greywater runoff from your property does not enter neighbouring properties,
water courses and dams. You will need to check local council regulations that stipulate minimum
set back distances.
Once the area has been selected, determine the number of
H

grO
pods required. Allow one pod for
each large shrub; for annuals allow one pod for each square metre of the garden to be irrigated. The
ideal number of pods per zone is between 15 and 25.
Trial and error may be required to achieve even watering. If the number of pods in each zone is
different, you may need to keep the
H

grO
diverted to the zones with more pods, more often than
the zones with fewer pods. If the garden is on a slope, then try to run the pipe along the slope,
rather than up and down the slope. If this is not possible then space the pods further apart at the
bottom of the slope and closer together at the top of the slope. Don’t be too concerned because it is
easy to move or replace pods at any time.
