Does the sprinkler needs a minimun XX PSI pressure to work?

I live in Forney Tx. by city regulations we have 75lb required pressure. While that may sound like a lot, if I have 1 sprinkler going, it covers a large area, but with 2 going, it greatly reduces the coverage area. Otherwise this is a great adjustable sprinkler for long narrow areas like the side of the house or specific areas. I will definitely buy more.

Yes. Remember this is a "soaker" not a "sprinkler". Lay soker down the middle with low water pressure[water flow]

No it does not. If I remember correctly, the instructions said not to use water. That said, I have used it with a pressure sprayer spraying water.

something is not right with your numbers? If you have 70 psi of pressure, you should be getting more than 6.5 gpm from your spicket. I have 3 of these sprinklers on the same line with only 40psi and 6 gpm from my spicket. The 3 heads I have running cover an area that is 40 feet in length.

Not sure - our water pressure was approximately 70 psi and it works great. I believe the specs state that you must have, at a minimum, 50 psi. 35 psi sounds a little on the low side and would probably not work (of if it did, it probably wouldn't work very well).

Doesn't need much, uses a small amount of water and it makes it's own water pressure.

I haven't tried it but I really doubt you can use it to hook up to a sprinkler. There is not enough pressure.

Each sprinkler head has a different spray pattern, so perhaps you should switch heads. If you aren't using a pressure regulator, you can also control the distance of the spray by adjusting the water level up or down.The hoses are relatively small and only carry a certain amount of water, so you may be asking more from the system than it is physically capable of delivering. If that is the problem, add more hoses and more sprinkler heads. Good luck!

It's really a function of the nozzle you put on it. The diameter of it seems to be narrower thanthe normal hose and I have no problem than with the pressure.

It does have a pressure guage... but as far as their fitting I can't answer that because I really don't know. It did fit my pool like a breeze and made my life SO much easier

Strictly water pressure for the spray. Don't forget, there's no heat with this model.

I have not used this with low pressure, but moved to this particular model because of high pressure. I would say that because of the light construction of the sprinkler it should do well for you although you will not get the coverage expected with a high pressure system.

No not at all, but more or less full of something will affect the pressure, so you might have to use more or less charges to obtain your desired pressure.

I'm not a plumber, but the PSI of any faucet depends on household water pressure. The only variable in the faucet itself would be a flow restrictor. I found no restrictor on this item.

I use it to to run two sprinklers on my lawn at night. I have about 45 pounds pressure and it works well. You can probably test your situation by hooking your hose directly and checking how the watering works. The timer will not reduce the pressure very much. Charles

No, the pressure is fixed. You adjust the force of the water spray by how close the nossel is to the target.

I don't know what the minimum pressure is for this device, but I know that we have 42 psi out of hose bib and it worked very good at this pressure. This was attached to a 50 ft hose.
