If I close the hose pressure, does it allow me to approach my own garden?

Once the hose is turned off we recommend waving your hand in front of the unit to drain the water from the hose. To turn the unit off the sensitivity dial can be placed between the 9 and the 1.

I have to imagine there would be a better way to achieve that. First, I don't think this product is of high enough quality to handle constant pressure, it's really just a hose hook up. Second, as a tenant I would reset mine as soon as I found it.

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.

You can adjust the higth of the spray by having the sprayer closer or further away from your watering or lowering the pressure

yes-If you have low water pressure naturally-remove the red screen at the hose connection.Plyers help

Yes. Unless you leave the hose connected all the time, then when you do try to connect you get a blast olf air that will scare youi.

The hose does weep residual water after shutting off the water supply valve, however it does not completely drain and requires water pressure to star dripping. I would not expect a free flow of water from a gravity system, UNLESS the rain barrel was raised significantly above ground to provide appropriate "head pressure".

You have to leave the nozzle open to let it drain out, it will shrink back if it drains, maybe not as much as it look on the ad. I you have high water pressure it may burst the hose one of mine did in the front of my house (higher pressure there). Also keep it out of the sun when not using. I love the convenience but was disappointed when one hose popped.

Hi, This system is designed for only low flow as it says in the item description like veg garden for best results only for shorter distance. I got it for my garden to attach one of the sprinkler head so that my garden gets water. I guess you need one step higher may be.

the pressure would be too much on a regular garden hose and most sprinklers would be too weak..you would have to use a commercial sprinkler

If the opening is circular, you just may do it. The pump is oblong on its base and wider than 5 inches, but you may be able to tease it through the hole. However, you may not be able to do this if you have a garden hose connected.

Yes, and it's pretty simple to do. Understand, though, that if you have a garden hose connected to one of them, that one would be set to Manual, leaving you three circuits for drip irrigation.

Not really - My barrel is about 8" above the ground and when the barrel is partially full, or even full, the pressure is adequate to fill watering cans or water nearby plants but not to actually "spray" very far as you would with an outdoor faucet. This unit works great for its intended purpose - to water our plants with "free" untreated water.

Yes. When you shut the water off some of it will come back and splash out of this attachment (and get your hand wet). This is a good thing. Just dry your hand and be glad that the pressure has been relieved from your hose and other more expensive attachments you have at the spigot (e.g., timers).

its an odd size, not a garden hose. I found hose close enough and put a clamp on it to hold it in place. works fine, better than trying to empty the bucket.

The through valve is manual, So you have to open it and you have to close it. However when you close it, than it is closed, nothing comes out. So you need not to buy any cap. This unit is great for low pressure watering. I was disappointed when I hooked this up to my lawn sprinkler and the pressure dropped significantly as this unit is a little bit of a throttle, or bottle neck. But it would be perfect and simple for low pressure garden watering. The timer is super simple and easy.

No, the black piece on the left side pulls down to release water into the hose; then you move upward to shut off. So, I believe if you do not have a hose hooked up to the manual side you leave it up. The right side is control by the dial which can be shut off. I have a hose hooked up on the right side that goes to 3 underground sprinklers and is automatically set by how I set the dial. The other side I have a hose set up that is controlled by manual up or down thing on the left that I use for mostly garden activity.
