Toro DB-04-PC Drip Flood Bubbler 4 Gph 1/2 Inch Fipt

Product Description

The TORO DB-04-PC is a pressure compensating drip flood bubbler designed for low-volume irrigation applications. It delivers a consistent 4 gallons per hour (GPH) output regardless of fluctuations in system pressure, making it well suited for landscapes where uniform water distribution is critical. The 1/2 inch Female Iron Pipe Thread (FIPT) inlet allows for straightforward integration into standard drip and bubbler irrigation systems. Licensed irrigation technicians and landscape contractors are the typical installers of this component in both residential and light commercial settings.

This bubbler is intended for use in drip irrigation systems where controlled, low-flow water delivery is required at the root zone of trees, shrubs, or ground cover plantings. The pressure compensating design maintains the 4 GPH flow rate across a range of operating pressures, which is particularly useful in systems with elevation changes or varying lateral lengths. It connects directly to risers or manifolds via the 1/2 inch FIPT connection and is compatible with standard drip irrigation distribution tubing configurations.

Key Features

• Pressure compensating output holds a steady 4 GPH across varying system pressures
• 1/2 inch FIPT inlet for direct connection to risers, manifolds, or poly pipe fittings
• Flood bubbler design delivers gentle, low-velocity water distribution at the emission point
• Suitable for residential and light commercial drip irrigation installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for standard 1/2 inch FIPT drip and bubbler irrigation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed irrigation contractors or qualified landscape technicians. Shut off system water supply and relieve line pressure before connecting or removing any drip components. Ensure the receiving fitting or riser is clean and free of debris before threading in the bubbler to avoid clogging the pressure compensating mechanism. Follow local plumbing and irrigation codes for low-volume drip system installations.
