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.

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

I'm honestly not sure that only 3 inches in the ground and 9 above would work well on a slope; possibly not enough below to keep it from giving way to water or earth pressure.

If the ground is broken it will eventually work down about 6". Unbroken ground takes a little more work! Eventually will get to that point but a lot more work! It works very well all around though!

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.

A 3/4" garden hose will reduce performance by ~ 75% (vs. 1 1/2" pipe) but it will work..

No. I would not recommend burying this cable. In my opinion the outer covering is only meant to be used above ground

I would think so but I would avoid it if it is in dirt as it will get pushed down and covered up

the wire core makes it stiff. I believe 6 inches is doable but will require some muscle

About 3 inches above the base in the vertical pipe. Look closely at the picture..it's showing the hose.

The hole have to be at least. 3" then you will have to check if is not too long.

i would check with the manufacturer. i personally would not bury any gas pipie in the ground without a conduit. This pipie is very soft so that it can be bent in any form. If this pipe were to be laid into the ground as is, it would very easily be ruptured by anyone digging with a shovel

When you put it in the ground, it is only about knee high. But, it holds up to 100' hose.

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 would think if you pound the pipes deep enough into the sand it will stay standing. But really depends how loose the sand is.

The hose is not very flexible, expect a 90 degree bend to be around a 15 inch radius. I ordered ten feet and it came rolled up in a box that was around 30 inches square. I had no issues getting it installed over the insert fittings on my boat.

I managed to dig 30 inches down with this in unmodified form. I have read of people using this post hold auger to dig 20ft deep wells by extending the handle. So it is possible to get 6 feet deep, but not without some DIY modifications.
