Frequently Asked Questions about Garden Hoses

Choose the right garden hose by deciding what you will use it for the most. Purchase one that fits your needs and will last you long into the future. Feel free to contact our experts, but here is a tip.

Keep the following questions in mind as you shop to find the right hose for your lawn and garden, depending on the purpose of use for the hose (watering plants, washing the car, or rinsing off the patio).

Start with the standard lengths of 25 feet (10 meters), 50 feet (15 meters), 75 feet (25 meters), or 100 feet (30 meters), unless you have longer distant watering needs.

Most hoses are 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) in diameter and can provide about 9 gallons (34 liters) of water per minute.

Use a thicker (larger diameter) hose to deliver more water. They can range from 5/8 inches (1.6 cm) to even 3/4 inches (1.9 cm) in diameter. The thicker the hose, the less water pressure is lost over the distance travelled.

Choose a vinyl hose if you live in a mild climate and have only light watering to do. Vinyl often costs less. Look for a hose that is reinforced with several layers if you need extra resilience.

Use a sprinkler hose or a soaker hose for regular lawn watering. A sprinkler hose can be left on the ground in one place and provide a light watering through a series of holes to the surrounding garden or lawn. A soaker hose lays on the ground or just beneath the ground and allows water to saturate the soil.

If your yard has a lot of equipment, furniture, or sharp objects that you may drag the hose over, the right garden hose might be one with a mesh covering on the outer layer which can help protect against snags and punctures.

Taking good care of your hose can extend its life considerably. Avoid leaving hoses out in direct sunlight as doing so may cause the water inside to boil, leading to interior damage. Avoid bending or kinking hoses during cold weather and coil hoses when not in use to prevent cracking.

Keep close tabs on where your hose is at all times to avoid accidentally mowing over it or cutting it with an edge trimmer. Purchasing a hose for each faucet will save you time and allow you to better select the right hose for different jobs.

  • Drain hoses before freezing temperatures set in to prevent expansion and breakage
  • Avoid dragging hoses over rough surfaces or areas with sharp objects
  • Choose heavy-duty PVC hoses for intense commercial applications
