Solvent-free, British-made, and designed to work with thicker nutrient feeds without bunging up. If you're running EasyFeed or scaling a system from 4 pots to 100, these fittings are the connectors that make it all talk to each other. Straightforward kit that does the job right.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasyFeed Irrigation Fittings are the connector components that make up the heart of the EasyFeed growing system — a British-engineered, gravity-fed irrigation solution designed to scale from small hobby setups to commercial operations.

They're engineered to handle nutrient solutions cleanly, not just water, which means thicker feeds and organic additives won't cause the clogging nightmare you get with standard 4mm tubing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasyFeed Irrigation Fittings sit in a different category to budget barbed connectors and compression fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003evs. Standard barbed fittings (4mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e Wider 16mm tubing means no blockages even with nutrient feeds; solvent-free installation vs. glued joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003evs. Compression fittings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easier to use, reusable, no special tools needed; faster reconfiguration if you change your setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003evs. Premium reusable systems:\u003c\/strong\u003e Same durability and reusability as Perma-Loc or Twist-N-Lok fittings, but integrated into a complete timer-controlled system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real difference is the whole system thinking. EasyFeed fittings aren't just connectors — they're part of a purpose-built irrigation architecture that puts you in control of when water flows, not just how much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasyFeed Irrigation Fittings work in a modular, gravity-fed setup where water flows from a butt down through 16mm pipe to individual pot trays via float valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBasic setup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFloat valves fit into each pot tray with a washer and nut. Female connectors thread onto the float valve, and fittings join the main line to branch off to each valve. Use tee pieces to branch from the main row, elbows to cap off the end of a row.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm the end of the 16mm pipe in hot water to soften it slightly, then slide it onto the fitting — creates a strong watertight seal without any glue or solvents. Hand-tighten connectors.
