About This Product

DIG 100 ft. 1/2 in. with 0.700 OD dripline is extruded with 1 GPH pressure compensating (PC) drip emitters built into the interior wall of the dripline every 12 in. Each drip emitter continuously adjusts to varying incoming water pressure, ensuring a constant flow rate along the dripline. For commercial and residential applications, install this drip line above the ground and, if desired, cover it with mulch to blend with the landscape. The PC dripline is ideal for plants in preset spacing, narrow plantings and closely spaced plants in rows, as well as for hedges, groundcover, shrubs and roses. For complete coverage of an area, use multiple lines of dripline, placing the lines 16 in. to 24 in. apart. In addition, the dripline can be used around a house foundation to reduce soil movement, cracking and slab damage.

Questions & Answers

I hooked this line up to a zone in my rain bird system for my flower bed. The system has pressure regulators already but the line is squealing pretty bad. Is it still too much pressure? Not sure what regulators they are but don’t think they are adjustable

Answer This Question

Hi JeremyP, if you're hearing a noise from the emitters that come pre-installed in the Earthline Brown PC 1-GPH Drip Line with 12in Spacing it means your pressure is most likely too high. This noise and/or vibration in the emitter only occurs when the silicone diaphragm inside the emitter is fluctuating due to higher pressures. We recommend 25psi for our Earthline Brown PC dripline, you can use model: D46 or D46P depending on the thread type. If you need any assistance identify the proper pressure regulator please take a couple photos of the installation and we'll happily verify for you. email: tech@digcorp.com

      can this be used for a gravity system using a 50-gallon barrel that is 5 feet above ground
      ByJan 15, 2026
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Hi Jeff: No, the Earthline PC dripline is not suitable for gravity flow barrel systems because the operating pressure will be too low. You will have only around 2 psi. if the barrel is 5 feet higher than the system. The Earthline needs a minimum of 10 psi to function properly. You could use our gravity flow kit or non-pressure compensating flag or button drippers, please see this link to our website for details...https://www.digcorp.com/homeowner-drip-irrigation-products/gf100-gravity-feed-kit/ https://www.digcorp.com/homeowner-drip-irrigation-products/flag-drip-emitters/ Thank you for your interest in DIG irrigation products! 💧

        Do the holes easily clog from hard water deposits?
        ByJan 13, 2026
        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        Hi Notsure: No, the emitters are self-flushing and resistant to clogging due to hard water. Make sure to install a good 155 mesh screen Y filter and a pressure regulator & the dripline will function well for many, many years. The product is covered by a 5-year warranty. Thank you for your interest in DIG irrigation products! 💧

              I have multiple raised veggie beds with total of almost 100' of this line. About 5 years old. A number of emitters have failed and spray streams of water. I do have a 25psi pressure compensator at the beginning of the line. How to repair?

              Answer This Question

              Hi Galactichitcher- The way to repair it is to cut out the faulty dripper and splice the two ends together with a compression coupling #C33. If you want to add a new dripper just punch a hole where you want it and then install a 1 GPH PC dripper into the hole. Thank you for the question and for using DIG irrigation products,

                How to clean clogged emitters
                ByJan 1, 2025
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                Hello Raja, to clean clogged emitters it is best practice to flush the lines periodically. Secondly, we always recommend the use of filters on drip lines, micro sprayers, etc. If you do not have a filter installed on the system, I recommend installing a filter and trying to flush the lines by opening the end of the line and let the system run for 1 to 5 minutes. If the flush does not work, you may need to replace a section of dripline or install extra emitters on the line to replace the clogged emitters. Thank you!

                  Easy to Use, Waters Evenly
                  This brown tubing is much easier to work with than the black stuff! Connectors slide right in. Perfect for my garden with lots of plants, provides consistent watering without running a separate line to each one.

                      Best option so far
                      I tried the black porous drip hoses and they crack quickly in the Texas heat. I tried the micro spray drip hoses and they constantly have to be adjusted. These DIG Earthline brown irrigation tubes are the best so far. They stay in place, no adjusting and I cut them to size. I built a manifold that is supplied by either city water or by rain water collection. I have four garden beds. Each has a manifold with 4 or 5 DIG lines. Each line has an on / off valve. The work great with a water from a no pressure rain collection tank. The water spreads out as it drips. The hoses have two different hole spaces, 12 and 18 inches. Each line is 11 feet long. I like the new DIG valve controls. I no longer have to build PVC to Hose end to tube connections. Great product. Victory garden !

                        Emitter function worthless.
                        The poly tubing works as tubing just fine, however the emitters are worthless. Most do nothing, some drip, and an occasional one squirts water. I would recommend that you save yourself themoney and hassle, buy the regular tubing, and a punch to install proper drip fittings.
