Irrigation dripper Gardena 13314-20 8 l/h Black In-line mounting

The Gardena 13314-20 irrigation dripper is an in-line mounting emitter designed to provide precise, low-volume watering for gardens, flower beds and landscape plantings. The device delivers a steady maximum flow of 8 l/h, comes in black and is supplied in packs of five. Intended for integration into drip irrigation lines, this dripper helps maintain soil moisture at the root zone while reducing water waste compared with overhead watering.

Advantages

The in-line mounting design allows for straightforward installation directly into main or sub irrigation tubing without additional fittings, enabling a clean, low-profile layout. A defined maximum flow rate of 8 l/h provides consistent, meterable output for uniform watering across multiple plants. The compact black housing is resistant to light exposure when installed under mulch or soil surface and minimizes visual impact in planting beds. Pack quantity of five supports small to medium garden runs or phased expansion of existing drip systems.

Suitable for

• Drip irrigation lines for garden beds and borders
• Individual shrubs, perennials and vegetable rows where controlled water delivery is needed
• Landscape planting with low to moderate water requirements
• Retrofit into existing polyethylene tubing for spot irrigation

Key specifications

• Mounting type: in-line insertion into irrigation tubing
• Maximum flow rate: 8 liters per hour
• Color: black
• Pack count: 5 drippers per package
• Application: low-volume drip irrigation for individual plants or short runs

How to use

Install the dripper by puncturing or inserting it into compatible irrigation tubing at the desired plant location, following tubing manufacturer guidance for hole size where applicable. Ensure the irrigation system is flushed before installation to remove debris. Position the dripper so the outlet directs water toward the root zone of the target plant. Regulate system pressure according to the irrigation layout; use pressure compensation or regulators if required to maintain consistent output across the system. Check connections and run a short test cycle to confirm correct flow and placement.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the drippers for clogging and perform periodic flushing of the supply line. If mineral-rich or particulate-laden water is used, install a filter upstream. Adjust watering frequency and duration seasonally to match plant water needs and local climate conditions.
