How much does it normally cost to install drip irrigation? Which factors might drive up the cost?

Hello Collin,

Factors that may affect your setup include:

  • Water Pump
  • Hose length
  • Type of Plants (Amount of spout/ distribution points)
  • Do you just want to run water? If you also want occasional fertilizer distribution, hoses can get clogged.
  • How hard is the water? Calcium build ups can also clog up the spouts/distribution nozzles
  • Maintenance (damage from gardeners, natural wear and tear, clogs, leaks, plants at the end of the line will get less water if pump isn’t strong enough.
