DripTech Kenya
Irrigation troubleshooting guide for Kenyan farms
When an irrigation system stops delivering water evenly, check the basics before replacing equipment. This guide helps you narrow down common drip and sprinkler problems safely, identify what information to collect, and know when a technician should inspect the system.
Start with these checks
- Check whether the water source has enough water and the pump or supply is operating normally
- Inspect the filter and clean it according to the manufacturer's instructions
- Look for leaks, kinked pipes, closed valves and disconnected fittings
- Compare water delivery at the beginning and end of lines
- Turn the system off and isolate pressure before opening fittings or servicing equipment
Choose the problem that matches your system
Use the focused guides for blocked drippers, weak sprinkler coverage, leaks and pressure or pump problems. Symptoms can have several causes, so avoid replacing a pump or changing pressure settings based on one observation alone.
When to request technical support
If the system still performs unevenly after basic checks, share photos or a short video, the pump or filter model if known, the water source, and which zones are affected. DripTech Eco Flow can help assess the likely cause and discuss service options.
