No more mixing, measuring or burning! One pound of fertilizer applied the E-Z Flo way can do as much as 5 pounds applied in dry form. Because the fertilizer isn't diluted the 3/4 gallon tank will feed the average landscape for up to two months. 1.3 and 3 gallon tank models are also available for larger applications. The fertilizer mixing can be adjusted so 1 gallon of fertilizer is distributed in as little as 50 to as much as 2,000 gallons of water or any point in between. E-Z Flo applies fertilizer and other plant care products in liquid form, allowing the plants to absorb the nutrients immediately through the leaves and roots, so immediate results are seen.
Units include a hose bib connector (pictured) for a standard garden hose connection. Maximum tank operating pressure is 80 PSI.

All EZ-FLO installations, main-line or hose and drip, must have the appropriate backflow prevention device installed. New home construction after 1990 are required by building codes to have backflow prevention devices integrated into the household plumbing system. For houses built before 1990, it is recommended that a Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVB), available below, be installed. A PVB is a mechanical backflow preventer that consists of an independently acting, spring-loaded check valve and an independently acting, spring-loaded, air inlet valve on the discharge side of the check valve. It includes shutoff valves at each end of the assembly and is equipped with test cocks. A PVB may be used to isolate health or non-health hazards but is effective against backsiphonage only. |
