AutoPot AQUAvalve

Choose AQUAvalve5 for 9mm pipe and fittings

Choose AQUAvalve to replace older, pre August 2020 AQUAvalves with 6mm pipe and fittings

Power-Free

Once connected to the water supply, the AutoPot AQUAvalve in every AutoPot Watering System controls the flow of water to the plants by simple gravity pressure from a reservoir of any size. Pumps, electricity or timers are not necessary.

Plant Controlled

AQUAvalve is an exceptionally responsive means of feeding. It opens to supply water to a 20mm depth and then closes. Once the plants have used that supply the AQUAvalve reopens to repeat the cycle. No need to second guess plant requirements, compensate for conditions or recalibrate unnecessary pumps or computers.

AQUAvalve5 – a 66% Bigger Inlet

The needs of growers are ever-evolving, served by an increasingly diverse range of nutrients. With a 5mm inlet, the new AQUAvalve5 rises to the challenge of delivering the widest range of nutrients in a faster flow for a quicker fill, maximising system efficiency. Risk of blockages minimised.

Compatibility

AutoPot Watering Systems, System Modules, and Watering Kits are now supplied as standard with the large bore AQUAvalve5 and with 9mm, 9-16mm, and 16mm pipework and fittings.

The original AQUAvalve, the 6mm pipework and 6mm fittings previously supplied with the AutoPot range are still available as spares, as are 16mm-6mm fittings.

Your existing 1Pot, XL, XL SmartPot, and easy2grow trays, pots and lids will accommodate the new AQUAvalve5, the 9mm fittings and 9mm pipe.

Newly sold Tray Systems, AQUAbox Straight, AQUAbox Spyder, and 47L/30L Tanks are drilled out to accept 9mm pipe and fittings.

Your existing Tray System, AQUAbox Straight, and AQUAbox Spyder will fit AQUAvalve5 but will need existing holes drilling out to 12.5mm. Use a 9mm Grommet and 9mm Golf Filter to run 9mm pipe required for AQUAvalve5.

Your existing 47L/30L Tanks need existing holes drilling out to 12.5mm. Use a 9mm Grommet and 9mm Golf Filter to run 9mm pipe required for AQUAvalve5.

Only in the event of connecting directly to 9mm pipe do they require the new 16mm-9mm Filter and Adapter.

Energy Efficient

All AutoPot watering systems require ZERO POWER, NO PUMPS, NO MAINS WATER PRESSURE AND NO TIMERS to operate.

Whatever medium you choose the system caters for gardeners and growers of all abilities guaranteeing great results. With the round based pots, the grower can easily rotate the pot while it's still inside a tray. The pots & trays can be easily moved at will, if the plants grow too large they can be spaced further apart with ease.  Also, once set up and a tank is filled with water & liquid feed this extremely versatile system will completely take care of all your plants needs.

Advice :

Pot up your plants, water through, then allow your plants to establish in the pots for a period of 7 to 10 days before turning your system on. This will encourage a stronger and healthier root system.

Always raise your tank to a minimum of 150mm above the highest AQUAvalve and re-fill the tank when there is approximately a 1/3 of the solution left - NEVER ALLOW THE TANK TO RUN EMPTY.

For best results, we recommend mineral fertilisers such as Hydroponic or Coco nutrients. Do not use organic fertilisers, as they have a tendency to block small pipe work.

Clean all substrate from the bottom and sides of the pots before placing in each tray. This will ensure your system is clean from the start.

Always use free draining substrates, for example: 50/50 soil/perlite, coco/perlite, soil/clay pebbles, coco/clay pebbles, rockwool/clay pebbles.
