Some ads say for use with spray or 'sprinkler', how you can place the sprinkler when the hose is not expanded

Turn the toggle to off position then turn on water the hose will expand; put your sprinkler on the end, prepare to get wet when you turn the toggle to on position! :)

You have to use an in-line valve and a 2nd section of hose, rather awkward and a major dis-advantage to the hose. You can place a sprinkler on the un-expanded hose but the hose is going to be very short.

what ever you do, do not buy this hose! i have bought four of these and everyone of them have a sprung a leak with in 2 to 3 weeks. it is the worst hose on the market. i can tell you strong enough how awful this hoses.

They are certainly flexible enough to make a loop that is no more than one foot across. I have two of them snaked around and through bushes and plants that I can't water with sprinklers. These are true soaker hoses that sort of ooze water, not the flat hoses that have holes on just one side, and that are hard to keep flat where they are curved. It helps to place them while they are warm and therefore most flexible.

I've not installed yet onto the sprinkler, but i thinks this will allow me to add an extension that is available with a male end onto a pipe that is already male.

It doesn't have to be brought in but if you did you would double it's life. Your sprinkler system will be off all winter so you might as well bring them in as well. What it is is a little sponge inside the housing that expands when wet and contracts when dry. When it expands it makes a switch.

That should work for you. The "expanding" hoses will work if you don't mind getting wet to set the sprinkler at the end of the hose once it expands. :o) I just wish the tractor moved a little faster. With the draught, we're rationing water in Colorado (even with the floods), and the city has limited the time we're allowed to water. Good luck with your Raintrain (be sure to put it away - the neighbors all want one.

You are correct that the first sprayer gets more water than the other two -- there may be a way to "tune" them with the nozzels but I've never tried it because I don't need to -- I don't place them the full hose length apart but bring the two that have lesser spray closer together so I end up with basically an even spray -- they are not high tech but do the job --

I have a large yard in the country that is pretty uneven. The sprinkler handles this. The biggest constraint is how much hose it can pull

I have the same issue. I just lay it in a pattern that generally works. It does work better if the water force is high, but then the spray is too wide for my use. This is not my only in-line spray system and both have the same issue. For me it's still better than hand watering. PF

I am not sure, we do not have sprinkler. You should try to contact the manufacture

You can control how deep the blades go, but you should know how deep is the sprinkler system and try the machine on an area free of sprinkler to learn how deep it goes at diffrent adjustments

I comes with a sprinkler hose you Velcro in place then hook a garden hose to it. We haven't used it yet so I can't speak to how well it works.

We used garden hoses at the top (each side) and a sprinkler in the middle. It wasn't ideal but it worked.

You have to leave the nozzle open to let it drain out, it will shrink back if it drains, maybe not as much as it look on the ad. I you have high water pressure it may burst the hose one of mine did in the front of my house (higher pressure there). Also keep it out of the sun when not using. I love the convenience but was disappointed when one hose popped.

There should be no problem using with a sprinkler. The hose is light weight so even the self propelled versions should have no problem with it. The length at 25 feet is a little short for a lawn but okay for flower beds and such close to the spigot.

You can spray with a pump sprayer however, I found this product unacceptable. It did not work at all on my deck.

It has nothing to do with hose size as long as the ends of the house have national standard hose threads. They screw on and have quick connect capability similar in principle to air hose quick connect ends. They work very well and I purchased extra fittings for the lawn sprinkler, hose nozzle and fertilizer applicators eliminating constantly having to break out the wrench to tighten and loosen each connection each time I had to change an applicator as well as stopping leaks at the connection point.

A downspout can be positioned into that open top, then I would suggest you cover around it with plastic or such. There is a perforated disk to enclose the top while letting in loose rain (with no downspout), or downpour from eaves - which is what I use it for. The disk doesn't quite fit tightly enough for me, so I added a circular screen wire on top of the disk (which eliminates more dirt droppings) and I duct taped the disk/wire around the top of the barrel to help hold it in place. The faucet works well; the whole container holds a lot of water. I have really enjoyed having 2 of these (where I have a lot of run-off from the roof) to help with watering during our extreme drought and water rationing for 2 summers. I plan to add gutter drops into them eventually. They are very stable and you can add a barrel/tub/trash can next to it under the "run-off" drain so that when the barrel is filled during a storm, you can still collect extra water.
