Would this hose material stand up to being buried about 3-6 inches?

The main problem I see would be freezing. For example, sprinkler systems need to be blown out with compressed air before each winter. That said, I have a hose that I leave out under just a few inches all year with no problems though it is on a slope so I can drain it after each use.

I have detected a 3/4" metal pipe 12-18 inches underground. This is why I bought it and it did the job. Hope this helps.

I purchased this to hold a 75' nylon hose which has little weight. If you are talking about a regular hose, I don't think this has enough depth or height to hold a rubber hose. If the faucet is close to the house with little pipe exposed, weight of hose should not be a problem. Would be more concerned with volume of hose.

The post that comes with this mailbox system is smooth, 2.5 inches in diameter, and 6 feet in length and is intended for in-ground installation. The post should be buried approximately 18-24 inches and stabilized with concrete.

Yes it can go underground and should. The end of the drain needs to be open and drained to a lower area. Try to compact the soil on the sides while burying.

My gutter has metal tubes with aluminum nails 7" long every 3 feet, the Looj fits under them just fine. I would imagine you will have no problem.

Yes. If it is going to be buried I would make sure you use water proof wire nuts, heat shrink tubing or a liquid tape type product to protect the connection from possibly grounding out and corrosion.

I'm not sure it matters. Some companies bury them just a couple inches down. I'm burying mine with my water line, 20 inches or so.

No ! The hose will not deliver water if the differential pressure between the soil pressure is higher than the water pressure supplying the hose, and the flow will be reduced by some rate depending on the burial depth.

I have 35' of this hose serpentined through flower bed. I also have mine under mulch. I think it would be ok but make sure there is no water in the hose or freezing temps would burst the hose. Safest bet is to take it up and hang it in garage. Place it back outside in the Spring. Doesn't take much effort.

Yes. My only concern, would be the supplied coil hose. If over stretched regularly, you'll need to upgrade to a sturdier /longer hose.

It has UV protection. So it should stand up to the sunshine in the Sunshine State pretty well. But eventually, it will take its toll on the hose.

I would say not unless you run it through conduit or PVC. This is not as heavy as we use to use but it worked great for our lp gas lines which was above ground.

Yes it should work fine. Nice case btw. I had a small about of dirt slip in over a 7 day period I was doing a lot of digging.

As long as the ground underneath is reasonably level sure. I had to use patio block to level it out.

Works just fine. I only have about a foot of the hose exposed but it has been in the elements for about 3 months with no signs of wear. I live in N Texas so get the heat but not really cold.

Yes it seems to hold fine. My cover is 38' long and when rolled up it clears the ground Cover is 16 feet wide
