Features
Hunter PLD applies water slowly and evenly for consistent distribution. Water soaks in gradually, easily reaching its intended goal. What sets Hunter PLD apart is its pressure compensation system with a built-in check valve that helps prevent emitter clogging and water loss, as well as ensuring even flows on all terrains and lateral lengths. From an installation standpoint, it’s flexible, kink and UV resistant. Whether it’s a flowerbed, a shrub bunch, or other creative landscape configurations, Hunter’s PLD provides a reliable, efficient solution every day.
