Key Components & Benefits
Precision Watering: The 100m Cost Wise Soaker Hose is crafted from 100% recycled rubber. It features a porous design that delivers water directly to the root zone, saving up to 70% more water than traditional methods. It is UV and algae resistant, suitable for surface or subsurface installation (up to 20cm deep), and provides a flow rate of 0.76–1.26 litres per minute per meter at 0.7 BAR.
Automated Control: The Single Outlet Water Timer (TIMER1VALVE) allows for precise scheduling with up to four customizable cycles (1 minute to 4 hours). It features a clear digital display, manual override, and energy-efficient operation.
Robust Fittings & Management: The kit includes UV-resistant ground stakes for secure pipe positioning and durable mounting clips (plastic with metal nails) for organized installation on wood, masonry, or walls. The 16mm LDPE pipe (13mm internal diameter) provides a reliable, UV-resistant backbone for your system, while the barbed 16mm fittings (elbows, tees, straights, and plugs) allow for tool-free, leak-proof configuration.
Pressure Regulation: The included Pressure Reducing Connector maintains a steady 1.7 bar flow, protecting your system from over-watering and ensuring the longevity of your porous pipe and hose connections.
