Misting System Help
Afternoon people,
I have a misting system running on 3 vivs at the min Total off 5 nozzles...3x 4mm pollywog ones and 2x lucky reptile 6mm ones. Now i have a problem that when i turn the pump off two off the nozzles(same viv) are dripping quite abit...at the min i have to disconect the main feed to all the vivs to drain the water out to stop it dripping... How can i stop this all together...i have just ordered a second timer so really want to sort this or im going to flood said viv. cheers phil.

do you find that it is the lower nozzles are dripping. i.e water flowing from higher nozzles down to lower ones? also mistking talks of pumps that aren't grat and will drip after use. think they have something you can use to stop it

1 way valves do help, or go a magnetic drip stop valve (misting king or jewel spray sell both), or pollywog have 1ways.
1 ways are about £11.00 upward (all below sell 6mm), mag valves about £50. Jewelspray.nl mistking.com pollywog.co.uk
