How to repair leaking subsurface irrigation system?

Youryaki

Hi, any help appreciated.

The subsurface irrigation needs repair. The lilac line connects to ‘KISSS’ style drip lines via a connector held in place with a clamp and a 10mm hole punched into the lilac line - please see the pics. The connector has fractured off, the thread in the clamp, and therefore leaking.

Not sure where to source the clamp and connector, or similar, or whether I’m better off joining them differently (no idea how?)

Thanks for any help.

Hello @Youryaki

Please note that plumbing work needs to be completed by a licensed professional for safety and compliance. 

Thank you for sharing your question about your irrigation line. I'm not sure about the size of the fitting, but it appears to be a https://www.bunnings.com.au/philmac-1-1-2-x-1-fi-bsp-rural-tapping-saddle_p4815033? . The broken piece that was connected is possibly a https://www.bunnings.com.au/toro-25-x-25mm-bsp-male-director-single_p3128198? , again I'm not sure what size you have, but these appear to be the parts that are currently connected.

The lilac-coloured pipe is often an indicator that it is a grey water pipe. While many irrigation repairs are DIY-friendly, greywater carries biological hazards and is subject to strict health regulations, meaning licensed professionals are required for repairs.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
