I have a unit Dave that I put in up in the ceiling of my greenhouse and it had small brass heads. I was good and worked beautifully for a while.

While our well water is crystal clear and our aquifer is basically Spring water with no smell;...does not make calcium deposits or Iron buildups, there are enough minerals in our water that my heads kept clogging up every few days after a couple of months.

The ones I installed actually created a "mist".

I am thinking about retrofitting my tubes with another maybe less misty mist heads made more from drip tube type "chunky mist" heads though;........someday? Whistling

I don't really find these that misty though compared to the true mist that the small system I initially installed did do. Shrug! ....................It was great while it did though! Smiling
