Blusoak Straight-Line High-Pressure Blumat Kits are the most durable, reliable, and easy-to-service drip tape systems we’ve ever offered. Designed to operate at 10–15 PSI, these kits pair a preset 9-inch Blumat sensor with ultra-low-flow, 6-inch emitter spacing drip tape to deliver uniform moisture across beds and large containers—without runoff, dry spots, or constant tuning.
⚠️ Not compatible with gravity systems — requires 10–15 PSI to operate correctly.
Straight-line layout with removable headers makes installation, removal, and re-amending faster and easier between cycles.
Straight-Line Layout (Why It Matters)
These kits use a straight-line layout with header-fed runs of drip tape, rather than a single woven piece.
This design makes a major difference when it comes to maintaining and resetting your system between cycles.
- Quick removal for re-amending beds
- Easy reinstall without rebuilding the system
- Clean, modular layout with consistent pressure distribution
- Less frustration when turning over beds between runs
Each run connects using 8 mm SuperFlex headers, allowing you to lift the system out, amend your soil, and drop it back in place with minimal effort.
This is the preferred layout for growers who regularly rework their soil and want a system that supports that workflow.
What Makes BluSoak Different
BluSoak drip tape may look similar to standard drip tape, but performance comes down to flow rate and emitter spacing—and this tape was selected very intentionally.
- Lowest flow rate compatible with Blumat control
- 6-inch emitter spacing for continuous lateral wicking
- Uniform moisture distribution across the entire bed
- Thin-wall construction for easy cutting and installation
- Designed specifically for pressurized Blumat systems
After testing dozens of options, this is the only tape we’ve found that consistently performs the way a high-pressure Blumat system is meant to work.
How It Performs
Once pressurized, these systems respond quickly and maintain extremely consistent moisture levels.
- No dry spots between emitters
- No channeling or uneven watering
- No runoff when properly set up
- Minimal adjustment once dialed in
This creates a stable moisture environment that supports healthier root systems and more consistent plant performance.
What’s Included
Every BluSoak Straight-Line High-Pressure Kit includes:
-
Preset 9-inch Blumat Sensor – ideal for deeper root zones in beds and larger containers
-
BluSoak Drip Tape – ultra-low-flow emitter-style tape with 6-inch spacing
-
8 mm SuperFlex header lines – for modular connection and easy removal
-
All required BluSoak fittings – sized and configured for each kit layout
Each kit is designed as a complete in-bed or in-container solution that balances performance with ease of use.
Kit Options
Container / Small Bed Kit (Up to 2×4)
- Designed for 30–90 gallon containers or beds up to 2×4
- Two straight runs across the bed
- Header-fed layout for easy removal
- Includes all required fittings
- Includes 10 ft BluSoak drip tape
4×4 Bed Kit
- Four straight runs across the bed
- Header-fed layout for easy removal
- Includes all required fittings
- Includes 20 ft BluSoak drip tape
4×8 Bed Kit
- Four straight runs across the bed
- Header-fed layout for easy removal
- Includes all required fittings
- Includes 40 ft BluSoak drip tape
Bed kits differ only by tape length—layout and fittings are otherwise identical.
Pressure Requirements
These kits are designed for pressurized Blumat systems only.
- Operating range: 10–15 PSI
- Requires a pressure reducer (fixed or adjustable)
- Requires a pressurized water source (pump or municipal water)
Gravity systems will not provide enough pressure for this tape to function correctly.
When run at proper pressure, these systems are faster, more stable, and better suited for larger or commercial grows.
What You’ll Need to Complete the System
These kits include everything inside the bed or container. To complete your setup, you will also need:
- A supply line kit
- A water source setup, such as:
- Pressure reducer
- Bulkhead fittings
- Pump system or pressurized feed
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this with a gravity system?
No. These kits require 10–15 PSI and are designed for pressurized systems only.
Why use straight lines instead of a woven layout?
Straight-line layouts are modular and easy to remove, making them ideal for growers who re-amend soil between cycles.
What makes this better than standard drip tape?
Lower flow rate and tighter emitter spacing allow for even moisture distribution and proper compatibility with Blumat sensors.
Do I need a pump?
Yes, if you are running from a reservoir. A pressurized source is required.
