Griffith ACT, Australia

I have an irrigation system that runs off two taps. One in the front yard and one in the backyard. The system in backyard has six stations running from an old upright garden tap.

I would like to take the opportunity to reconfigure the inlet, removing the tap and creating a better manifold connection.
