Tanker Irrigation
A well established method of soil irrigation using a PVC tank at the bottom of the planter (or within the compost for taller planters). Watering takes place through the flexible filler/breather hose, and transfers to the compost via the geotextile wick. Non-return lugs stop the filler tube from being pulled up or down and an internal water gauge that can be viewed through the cap. Tanker Solo Installation Instructions pdf document

Composite System
The most straightforward type of self watering system for watertight planters uses a polystyrene core base to set aside the bottom 50mm of the planter as a reservoir. A capillary wick joins this to a capillary sheet, on which the compost/leca sits. The combimeter (combined filler tube and water meter) provides air to the reservoir and is used as the filler tube (avoids wet/dry cycles in the compost.) The water indicator shows the water level in the reservoir on the gauge at the top.Combimeters (Combined water meter and filler tube)
