What is the exact outside diameter of the soaker hose as well as the garden hose? I will be drilling this system into a deep root watering pipe.

Dear April, Thank you for writing. Our Snip-n-Drip Soaker Hose System (#40-205) includes soaker and garden hose that are both 1/2" in diameter. We appreciate your interest! Thanks for making Gardener's Supply your source for gardening products and information. Please let us know if we can help you with anything else. Sincerely, Darcy Customer Service

I haven't tried to attach a garden hose to the faucet but the tip does screw off. The outside diameter is about 3/4" but there are only 3 threads to screw onto. I don't think the faucet is built for the pressure. I do like it though and it looks really good. Hope this is helpful. Carole

It has a female hose end on it so it will attach directly to a garden hose. I use a 10 foot hose. I have mine at about 7 1/2 to 8 feet off the ground with the nozzles pointed out and it works fantastic. Everyone who has been over for summer parties wants one .

Not sure. Our soaker hose was hooked up on the bottom drain of the rain barrel. Our pump went on another barrel with a little hand held water hose & it worked great for that. Hope this helps.

No -- it is slightly less than that -- 3/8". It is fine for watering plants, but I found that the pressure of the water coming through the hose wasn't forceful enough for washing down the concrete walkway where the dogs are. A 5/8" is better for that. Depends on what you want to use it for -- it is a lot lighter than a standard hose of the same length and it doesn't kink, although sometimes the coils get tangled. Overall, I like it better than a standard hose.

No! The pressure washer side is 3/4" NPS (important!: not to be confused with the 3/4" NPT); the garden hose has a coarser thread.

I bought my hose from a local fish pond supplier, so I"m not sure. In the drinkers, two different people had commented about the proper hose size, and I was hesitant to buy one online.

I believe 1/4 inch but don't quote me on it. I originally had a bigger diameter pipe and then use a down size attachment to fit it. Pretty much went to home depot and asked them just easier than me guessing

Also just an fyi, be careful with the hoses that have an elbow built-in, because many of them might have a 1/2 I.D. (3/4O.D.) hose, but then they make the actual elbow part with a smaller inside diameter, such as 3/8 which will restrict the flow of water right at that elbow and kinda defeating the whole point of having a larger inside diameter hose.. I personally just got the exact hose you had asked the question on, two 6 foot hoses and one 5 foot hose, both identical brands just different length and they work great. I actually just ordered another set right now to replace out my mother's old rubber hoses.. Let me know if you have any other questions, -Ken

The inside diameter of the nozzle end is 1", the outside diameter is 1 1/4". I was not able to measure the diameter of the actual hose because the nozzle is permanently attached to the hose. Hope this helps.

The length is 6 feet, but unless your distance to the drain pipe is under 4'3", this item is not for you. I had to stretch it to full length and it sprung leaks in two sections soaking my floor. The universal fitting did not work for a 1" attachment. Outside diameter is 1 1/2 inches.

Well, the longer one leaves the water on and running through the soaker hose, the more the water will soak in and spread out over a ground area. I have the hoses on a long blueberry bed about 2 feet wide and I think the water gets generously to the roots with the hose positioned in a line rolled out near each plant.

The outside of the hose itself measures a little over 3/4", so I believe its a 5/8" hose ( A little hard to measure because the metal spring is in the way). Standard fit to my other hoses.

I think the answer is you have the wrong size half inch hose. The irrigation industry makes two hoses one with a half-inch ID and one with a half inch OD that's the problem knowing which hose to use. The seller is not always clear to which of these sizes you are getting very frustrating

Hard to know exactly because of the metal end, but about 1/2 inch. It's a small diameter compared to the average garden hose, in my opinion.

This adapter is a 3/4" Female Garden Hose Thread to a 1/2" drip line. I would keep it above the ground, but I guess you could bury it if you wanted to.

drainage hose is 6-8 feet, you have to provide your own water hose, a spray nozzle is included. Works best outside in warm weather.
