With a reduced diameter of ¼", it will minimize the compartmentalization zone (dead wood area) affected by tap holes. The diameter and depth of the tap hole have a direct influence on how large this area becomes. If sustainability of your bush is a priority, ¼" spouts drastically reduce the compartmentalization effect.
H2O Innovation continues to innovate with its spouts and fittings selection. The ultimate goal: maximize the flow of maple sap while fostering the healing of the tree for sustainable development. The resin used for certain spouts and fittings is the same formula highly appreciated by maple syrup producers for over 30 years! They are produced without a molding line, thus eliminating micro leaks in the collection network and optimizing production.
