Drip System Planner
Enter emitter flow, emitter count, available flow, run time, and optional spacing to calculate simple arithmetic estimates.
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Enter the flow and emitter values from your own system.
- Set emitter count and run time; spacing is recorded as an optional planning input.
- Review estimated litres used and compare total demand with available flow.
User-input arithmetic
Calculations use only the values you enter: total demand is emitter flow × count ÷ 60, and water use is emitter flow × count × minutes ÷ 60.
Scope boundary
This page does not recommend crops, soil moisture, irrigation layout, emitter selection, pressure, filtration, pump sizing, or code compliance. Spacing is recorded as a reference input and does not change the arithmetic.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common questions
Does it recommend a watering schedule?
No. It calculates from your chosen run time only.
Does spacing affect the result?
No. Spacing is an optional reference field and is not used in the arithmetic estimate.
Does it check my system?
No. It compares calculated demand with the available flow value you enter.
