Man, just get the regulators that come with the chloramine filter kits from thefilterguys.biz.

They sent me a 40 GPD, a 60 GPD, and I can order an 80 GPD. The little poly line slips right into the end of them, I can change them out with one hand and they never leak.

They're not adjustable, but they're so fast to change, who cares. get a selection of them and you can choose how much per day to drip.

I drip 60 GPD in a 540 gallon tank.

I use raindrip brand 2gph emitters and have had success with it for a month and some change. I intend to add more of them as needed but I might need to get my water out situated better before that happens.

Woodpecker brand can take temperature of 140F and drip the same regardless of your water pressure.

Do you have a link to the model that can handle that temp? I have been looking for one for a while. The woodpecker ones I am looking at now do not list temp operating range.

My drip emitter is a faucet. I don't like having my whole system under pressure. I much rather adjust at the main water line.

That's what found as well but had not seen anything mentioned about temp. Odd
I had talked to JHEMCO about it and they referred me to this company. They were nice enough to make some phone calls for me. I would forward the email if you would like some details.
