Ratings & Reviews for Orbit 8 -Port NPT Adjustable Flow Control Irrigation Manifold with Filter

USED A HEAT GUN TO WARN TUBING END,TO PUSH ON LINE

I NEEDED TO ADD 4 1/4" MISTERS TO EACH GARDEN POT

Find another style!!! These break repeatedly.

The tiny ports break VERY easily. Poor choice of system by the sellers, inherited with my new home.

Great Idea

This is working well so far. Had one to return because the center adjustment blew out.

Leaks at each port

The manifold leaks at each 1/4" line port. It does not form a secure connection, and, in the worst case, the 1/4" ports actually spray. I tried two 1/4" drip lines from manufacturers, and have not had this problem with other risers. The 1/2" riser input fits snugly, not that it really matters.

Works well but very delicate swivel connections

You can easily break one if the connections when trying to attach 1/4 inch lines..

The young man that cut the board for me on May 8th WA’s very helpful and polite

Functional and Easy To Install.

I just installed this manifold in a planter that has drip-irrigated plants. Installation is simple-just screw it onto a 1/2” riser and attach the drip lines. Flow to each line is adjustable, which is a nice feature. I ran one line for each of five plants, and, using 2 gpm drippers, there’s ample flow. The unused ports can remain closed by the screw-on caps, and dialing the flow control valves closed provides added safety. The threaded ports facilitate attachment of the the drip lines. Thi...

Met all expectations.

Easy to install, use and adjust. Very pleased thus far.

Review

Good working Have to be careful putting tubing on fixture so it won’t pull out of connector.

Good product

Good product but difficult to get the tubes on the outlets. other than that ok.

As expected

My originals are about 5-10 years old. When I blew out my system this fall one of these had the center of it blow out so it was shot. Got one for replacement and one for backup. Will have to use lower pressure as recommended, when I blow it out next year. A little difficult with the rental compressor as it can't be adjusted so one just needs to open the other valve on the compressor to reduce the pressure.

Not easy to adjust

Bought this in a two pack. I will have to replace the first one I used as it is almost impossible to keep adjusted. The water flow is never better than a trickle. The top adjustment is only somewhat helpful, but the individual adjustments are irratic. I hope the other one works better than the first one.

Not inspected

This is the second par of my order from Lowes. The first part was missing the chain for a hanging pot. This product ( I ordered 3) 2 OUT OF 3 were missing some the little black caps that close off the waterflow on unused heads. The staff is being lazy. It is quite obvious that parts were missing but they just sent them anyway. Somr quality control is needed by Lowes. I am tiring of dealing with this issue with Lowes. This is not the first time.

Sprinkling System Manifold

Easy to install, just put in rubber tubing to the 8 port manifold. You don't need to use all 8 ports at one time. Decided to only use 5 ports and will add plants in the fall. Just hook the new tubing to the 2 extra open ports. Easy to use, install.....

Where is my rebate!!!

I have been waiting for a $30.00 paint rebate since March, 2020. No confirmation of receipt, no website, no one at corporate. WHAT???? You call on the phone and it hangs up on you. Great Customer Service.... THANKS LOWE’S !!!

Drip irrigation manifold

I returned another brand from another location as it wasn't possible to turn each port on or off. Also this one has threaded caps to cover any port that is not is use making it easy for installation.
