  • In this video, I'm talking about the soaker hose system I purchased so I can try and get my foundation stable. It's a fairly simple product to use. The important thing to remember is that you shouldn't make the hose longer than 150 feet. If you need to go around your house try to use a splitter like I did so that the water goes in two different directions instead of trying to go in one direction all the way around the property.

    thank you for your video. A suggestion to improve the life of your orbit splitter/timer is to make a small leader hose jumper from the spigot to the splitter. so it hangs freely because over time the neck of the splitter will crack from the weight of the hoses.

    I've seen recommendations to use a pressure relief valve to keep soaker hoses and connectors from popping off, and water from shooting into the air. You did not, I did, and it still shot water into the air from my hose. Only by turning the splitter valve way down, did the water drip like it should. Any thoughts on this subject?

    Great video. How many minutes did you set the timer to water your plants using the soaker hose?

    Thank you, Julio. I am having trouble pushing the soft soaker hose into the "T" connector. All other parts, pieces are fine.

      Put the end in some warm water it should be playable after being in it for a couple minutes

    What do you mean by your foundation going all crazy? Also how does one remove a section of hose from a T end and reset it? Tx.

    I can’t even get the water to go 75 feet down the hose. And I have a regulator on…. Around the house it’s not flat so the hose goes up and down, not level. Would that cause the water to not make It all the way down the hose?

    Can anyone recommend a brand of 100ft soaker hose that soaks over its whole length? I tried a 100ft 3/8 SoakerPRO and almost all the water comes out of the first 25 feet.

      @@SwayPromo I upsized to a 1/2 in soaker hose and got better results. More still comes out of the front, but it's more of a gradual falloff and reaches the end.
