Blumat systems are pressure-sensitive. Gravity setups can work well, but they often introduce slow response times and small inconsistencies. When you switch to pressure, the entire system tightens up:

• Faster sensor response to soil moisture changes
• Adjustments show results much more quickly
• More consistent moisture levels across your grow
• More reliable overall system performance

• Mini pump
• Expansion / pressure tank
• Adjustable pressure reducer with integrated gauge
• Inline filter
• Bulkhead fitting for reservoir connection
• All tubing and hardware to connect to your reservoir
• Adapter for 8mm tubing or 1/2" black poly via Perma-Loc fitting

• Ideal for small tents and home grows
• Scales to multi-tent setups
• Rated for up to approximately 50 gallons per day
• Suitable for larger rooms when properly designed

Do I need a pump for a small Blumat system?
No — but even small systems benefit from faster response and more consistent performance when running on pressure.

Can I use a larger reservoir with this system?
Yes. One of the biggest advantages is being able to run a large reservoir on the ground instead of elevating it.

What's the benefit of switching from gravity to pressure?
Faster sensor response, more stable moisture levels, better system control, and reduced maintenance.
