Drip Versus Soaker Systems
DRIP is a miniature sprinkler system that waters individual
plants. Drip sprinklers range in spray distance from 0 to 15 feet
and emit water from ½ to 30 gallons per minute, allowing gar-
deners to tailor systems to meet each plant’s needs. Drip systems
are great for flower gardens, xeriscape gardens, container plants,
trees, and shrubs and can be connected to any outdoor faucet or
retrofitted to a new or existing underground sprinkler system.
SOAKER systems are designed to saturate the soil in a desig-
nated area. Water weeps from the tubing and is soaked up by the
surrounding soil to gently water delicate plants. There are two
types of soaker emitters: soaker hose and sprinkler hose. Soaker
hose gently discharges water from holes all around the tubing.
Sprinkler hose gently discharges water from holes on the sides of
the tubing, but also sprays water up to 10 feet from holes locat-
ed on the top of the hose. Soaker systems are used for flower and
vegetable gardens, professional landscaping, and any other veg-
etation planted in close proximity to each other. Soaker systems
can be connected to any outdoor faucet or retrofitted to a new or
existing underground sprinkler system.

Note: DO NOT remove the flow restrictor from inside the swivel hose attachment of
your soaker hose. This flow restrictor is designed to maintain optimal water flow and
pressure in the soaker hose. If removed or damaged, the life cycle and performance of
your soaker hose will be greatly reduced. The manufacturer is not liable for incidental or
consequential damages as a result of any misuse or defect of the product.

Helpful Tips & Guidelines
For optimal water efficiency and plant health, water in the
morning and less frequently for longer duration. Frequent
watering leads to shallow plant roots.
Soaker
To maintain even watering, soaker hose should not be
extended beyond 100 feet from the water source.
A single faucet can operate a total of up to 600 feet of soaker
hose. This is a combined total of all soaker hose no greater
than 100 feet in length from each outlet.
Soaker hose will water plants in loose, sandy soil up to 8
inches from each side of the hose; plants in hard, clay-like
soil must be within 12 inches of the hose.
Soaker hose is best used above ground or covered with
mulch. Hose may be buried up to 4 inches deep if necessary,
but is discouraged as it is more difficult to monitor watering
and hose can be damaged by unseen roots or digging.
Mini soaker hose should not exceed 15 feet in length.
Avoid placing soaker hose up and down hills; lay it horizon-
tally along slopes.
Soaker hose emits 1 gallon of water per hour for every 10
feet of hose, varying with water pressure and length of hose.
To determine optimal watering duration, experiment with
each section.

Soaker hose operates best at low pressures of 10 to25 psi.
The water from the hose should drip and not spray. Always
use a pressure regulator to achieve the appropriate water
pressure.
A soaker system should ALWAYS be installed with a pressure
reducer at the water source.
Water pressure should not exceed 25 psi, or the life cycle and
performance of your soaker hose will be greatly reduced.
The manufacturer of this product is not liable for incidental
or consequential damages as a result of any misuse or defect
of the product.
Drip
A single faucet can operate sprinklers for a total up to 200
gallons per hour. Mix and match drip sprinklers to total 200
gallons per hour for each faucet.
