Drip irrigation is not suitable for watering large areas such as lawns. It operates so quietly that you have to check drippers to see if it is on. Small openings in dripline and drippers can clog with algae, silt or mineral deposits if there is insufficient filtration or a dirty water source. If the system is not buried, vandalism or damage by animals can be a problem.
