Is this compatible with fittings from DripWorks? Their 1/2" tubing is 0.600" ID x 0.700" OD, vs.Rain Bird's 0.054" ID x 0.063" OD.

Should be compatible. .006in or .007in on 1/2 inch nominal is not worth worrying. With a female fitting it might be easier to install, but pressure should seal fine. For male fittings, it will probably be little harder to install, but may stay together stronger. I use alot of male barbed tees with my networks and soaker hoses. I usually install a plastic zip tie or safety wire at junctions with the plastic raindrip hose.

NO ! They most definitely are NOT compatible. I have been screwed by this many times.

This is a great little pump. The specs are accurate as far as I can tell. It has a 3/8" male barbed hose fitting at the discharge, so you'd need an adapter to get it to fit your 1/2" system depending on what type fitting you have on your drip line. If it's a regular female garden hose fitting you'd need a short piece of 3/8" tubing and a 3/8" male barbed x male garden hose adapter. You'll need some 3/8" hose anyway for the intake side of the pump.

Be aware that pipe and tubing are measured differently. Tubing, ususally, is measured at the outside diameter. e.g. 1/2" copper tubing will have an outside dia of 1/2". Pipe is usually measured as ID, or inside diameter. Now with Plex tubing however, the 1/2" I ordered is 1/2" ID, and 5/8 OD! So beware that adapting to other tubing and piping may throw you a curve or two.

I believe that all the PVC hot water fittings are the same, I am not too sure. My own fitted quite nicely with the PVC 1/2 inch hot water fitting.

Sorry, I don't know. I have a standard size tank. However you can check at any store to see if the fittings are the same size.

I can't comment about the codes and whether it would pass inspection, I used it for a DIY outdoor shower. But I didn't have any problems finding fittings that matched the threading. I ended up not using the 1/2" to 3/4" adapter that it came with and instead just used a 1/2" pex to 3/4" male threaded adapter because it was easier for my particular needs.

Bob, I have a 3/8" OD plastic tube from my filter to faucet, this diameter provides better flow. I am using a Omni under sink filter which has 3/8" inlet and outlet.

I believe it fits the ID of the tubing. You can look up standard pipe/tubing sizes in charts online.

The fittings are standard. I'm using rainbird, & some I picked up at Ace Hardware. Quarter inch is quarter inch.

For 1/2" PVC you need a 1/2PVC to 1/2" FPT adapter get at big box store, hardware store or amazon and you will need a 1/2"MPT to 1/2" barbed or Rain BirdSWGE10 EZ Pipe Elbow Fitting if this will fit you Rain Bird tubing

We had trouble using 5/8 plastic fitting due to the outside diameter of plastic fittings, it is thicker than brass ones. We switched to 5/8 brass fittings, they fit the hose perfectly. I would call it 5/8".

The 3/8 5/8 defines the type of tubing the fittings will accept. You'll need to match up the thread size of the fittings, which should be G1/4" like on this reservoir's in/out ports.

A 3/4 Blue heron poppet and bonnet will fit a 3/4" Febco backflow preventer. To find the size of your back flow please read the imprint on the shut off valve. Typical residential will either have 1" or 3/4"

No. This device is just an inline solenoid with a timer. You will have to install a small pressure reducing device behind the Raindrip for it to work properly with a drip system.

It should. Mine is a 25 yr rainsoft. It should screw into the resin tank. Good luck!

Water connections on my unit are 1/2 in. CTS (copper tubing size).Will 3/8 supplys work depends on your incoming water pressure.I have my unit plumbed 1/2 cts. If your 3/8 in. supply lines work on your existing fixtures you are going to be fine

I used 3" but 1 1/2" would work fine. My thought was the bigger the diameter the more water it held. More water means less fill ups and plenty of water for hot days.
