When building your overhead greenhouse cooling and irrigation system, the Press-Fit Coupler (10-Pack) is an absolute necessity for hard-piped PVC setups. This small but vital adapter bridges the gap between your anti-drip valves and your favorite press-fit emitters, such as Ein Dor Mini Sprinklers. By securely joining these components together, you ensure a flawless, drip-free operation that protects your fragile spring seedlings from post-watering saturation. Made from high-quality plastics, these couplers guarantee a leak-proof friction fit that holds tight even under the high pressures required for professional misting and fogging.

Follow these steps to assemble your overhead sprinkler array for a PVC pipe installation.
Step 1: Drill the PVC Pipe
Using a specialized Grommet Drill Bit (GROMDRILL) that will not shatter the plastic, drill a 7/16" hole into your 3/4" or larger PVC pipe.
Step 2: Insert the Grommet
Push the Rubber Grommet (MEGRO) completely into the newly drilled hole to create a watertight seal base.
Step 3: Assemble the Components
Take the Press-Fit Coupler (MECPL). Push one end firmly into the bottom of your chosen press-fit sprinkler or mister. Push the other end of the coupler into the top of the Anti-Drip Device (MEAD).
Step 4: Thread into the PVC
Take your fully assembled unit and thread the bottom of the Anti-Drip Device securely into the rubber grommet on your PVC pipe.
