Small systems work great on gravity; but, when you expand, you may need a pressuring pump system. These also help if you lose your pressure when mixing nutrients and additives in a reservoir. The pump pressurizes a pressure tank and turns off. The tank then silently supplies the water with the pump not running. These also can work to transfer water from a distant tank to one closer or to automatically fill a small reservoir with a float valve.

VacMotion Inc. Strainer for Drip Systems - White Bowl, ½" FPT
Description A relatively inexpensive but still high quality and easy-to-use filter. Because of the clear base, you can quickly see if it's getting dirty and you can clean it out without having to unhook your lines. Includes adapters going to 8 mm Blumat line so to install, just cut the line and push the tubing on to the adapters! If your water isn't clean or you'd like to use thick nutrients in a reservoir, this filter will keep your Blumats safe. The screen has just the right mesh - not too big that could let clogging particles through or too small that would mean unnecessary cleaning. Clear bases make it easier to tell if they need to be cleaned but best only in dark rooms. White bases better to prevent algae build-up. For the same price, we can also ship this with fittings for 1/2" drip, 3/8" drip, 1/2" & 3/4" slip PVC. For a little extra, we can provide a fitting for 3/4 hose thread or any combination of the above.
