> Iron is the largest source of clogging in drip, there are two types of
iron clogging one is just free iron in water the other is bacteria feeding
on the iron creating a slime "ochre" in the tubing. First test your water to
find the ppm of iron. Chlorine injection is the only way to prevent both
clogs you inject 1 ppm of chlorine for each ppm of iron or 2-5 ppm for each
ppm of bacteria...Bob.
