Are you supposed to continuously leave your hose/faucet on in order for this to work? Isn't that expensive?

It will only use the water when the dog licks it When they stop licking it will turn off
603611
Yes you leave the faucet on all the time but no water flows unless the dog licks it.

It's like a tap, it only flows water when the dog licks it... You save water :)

Yes, leave the faucet on. The water only comes out of the spiget when your pet licks it. There is no other loss of water. I have used it several times and have not been disappointed.

if you turn the faucet off and turn back on in the same position then the temperature should stay pretty much the same....If you leave it on full hot and turn off and turn it back on without moving the lever it should stay on full hot...PS its a nice reliable faucet I have used about 6 of them in recent 2 years

The spray stays on until you push the button to turn it off. If you turn the faucet off while it is in spray mode, it will still be in spray mode when you turn it back on.

No shutoff but usually it's hooked up after faucet's shutoff so no big deal.

This seem not be the faucet's fault but more an issue of the water feed from the heater? E.g. is it better once you have used the hot water, once it is hot, then change it back to cold then hot again and then there is no wait-time? If so, you know for a fact that it's not a faucet-issue..

you can, but I don't recommend it. I did that and the pressure built up and popped the spray loose from the faucet.My recommendation would be to turn the water off!

yes. otherwise you will have to run back to the faucet to turn off the hose.. with out a shut off valve it is like an open ended hose.

No. I used a "pull down" faucet that allows the faucet head to be pulled out on a hose.

I had the same concern but it has worked fine. Refreshing, comes to mind. And as I thought about it I came to fear a burst of too hot water more than cold. I've not used the warm/cold model but I don't think there would be a lot of difference in that when you turn a hot faucet on it takes a while before it is hot.

No. Both of the hoses I own have the same problem. I just wrapped tape around the connectors and don't use the function that shuts them off at the connector, because then they leak right through the hose. It's a problem I just decided to live with. Otherwise I like the hose.

Unfortunately no, Cathy, I have the very heavy duty one and have timed it traveling over my yard. So far it has never jumped the hose and I just make sure I'm around to check it towards the end of the period I timed. Probably a timer on the faucet would be a good investment. Good luck.

The sprayer comes with a valve that you should turn off when not in use, but you don't have to shut off the toilet water supply (if that's what you meant). If you don't turn off the valve the nozzle might drip a little is all.

Sure - why not? Hook to hose - set timer - turn on water - Remember, it shuts off on time, not amount of water.

No it does not. If you want to keep on faucet continuously, you would need to purchase a valve and install it yourself.

Maybe this doesn't answer your question but I do leave mine attached at all times. I have it attached directly to the water spout and the hose then attaches to the filter. Been doing it this way for two years and I'm on my second filter.

Not so. I just ran the water for over 4 minutes. The faucet did NOT shut off.

The biggest problem I can see would come from having your hose under constant pressure because the Orbit unit controls the pressure at the faucet with regular application. You would be placing the constant pressure on the the hose before it reaches the Orbit. Make sure you have a very study hose, and check your hose often for leaks.
