How low is low water pressure? 50 psi? 5 psi?

1. a traditional drip system is regulated to between 10 and 30 psi with most regulators at around 15-20 psi. This hose is probably best run at about 30 psi max. True Water pressure measurements are a little more complicated (static vs dynamic) and depend on flow rates, other parameters, but the bottom line is that this hose can be used with a drip regulator or by closing the hose bibb about halfway. I bought three, at one point all were subjected to full water pressure (90 psi). Two of the three failed. These hoses are nice because they are more flexible than the recycled rubber versions but the cost and failure rate caused me to switch to the recycled rubber versions. Without a regulator, you might accidentally turn them up too high.

At average water pressure of 45 psi the reach is 20 feet from each noodle. However, everyone has different water pressure at their home. "This Old House" gave a general description of 10 to 35 feet depending on water pressure.

System needs between 20-30 psi to be effective. Most "normal" houses have a water pressure of 40psi or better, which is why this system comes with a regulator. A low pressure well should operate at or slightly above 30 psi, so it should work perfectly fine.

The valve is battery operated, so I see no reason why it should not work with your lower pressure. You may have to set it for a longer water duration time to get the amount of water you want.

It is very adequate. You probably need good pressure on the input side for this to work well. we had no issues with water pressure.

I don't know. It is fairly low pressure but I don't know the psi. It is definitely less that San Antonio residential water system pressure.

I've used it with some very low pressure before. It will work with any pressure really.

I have run it on as little as 50 psi. However, it nseems to work best at anywhere between 80 and 110 psi.

i have not check the city pressure recenrly , but i figure its between 35-45 psi, if your pressuredrops below 36 psi some low flow toilets will not work properly

At least 50 - 60 ft. And I have well water, which doesn't get the pressure city water does.

I had the 50 ft and it never worked for me. That being said i have low water pressure due to the fact that i have well water not city. If you have strong faucet pressure i have seen them work over 100 feet

The water features runs separately, however, as mentioned in other answer, it is possible to turn the knob half way in between the 2 features to get a little bit of both but the water flow will be low. The recommended PSI is 60.

I have read elsewhere that it is 2.5 GPM, which is the legal limit, no matter if one or both are on, because the water pressure decreases when both are on.

It's all based on how much water pressure you have turned on. you can pretty easily get it to a 2' radius. not sure if it will go lower than that.

It does rely on water pressure for it's force. But I'm not sure how low is to low.

70-75 psi seems to work well. more pressure does not appear to have any greater effect. Hands down, one of the best purchases I have made in some time. I only use 110 volts. It has been more than adequate for my needs.

Yes as this is more than 50% of full scale it is very easy to read and confirm this pressure on a 0-60 psi scale. Many other gauges have a 0-100 or even 0-120 psi scale and it is more difficult to read a relatively low (37 psi) reading on those gauges.
