Know before you buy
The rectangular spray pattern is designed to provide uniform water coverage across your garden beds. This helps eliminate dry spots that often occur with circular sprinklers and ensures your plants receive consistent hydration.
Yes, but you must ensure the water pressure does not exceed 30 PSI. Because this system operates at low pressure, you may need to adjust your faucet flow to avoid exceeding the burst pressure limit.
While the tubing is effective for irrigation, it is not rated as drinking water safe. It is best suited for watering the soil around your vegetables rather than spraying the edible parts directly.
The tubing is constructed with UV and tear-resistant materials, making it capable of handling long-term outdoor exposure. However, it is not designed for freezing temperatures, so you should drain and store it during the winter months.
The tubing is not kink-resistant, so you should handle it with care when laying it out. It is best used in straight lines or gentle curves to maintain the integrity of the rectangular spray pattern.
The Sumi Soaker Max is available in 25, 50, 100, and 328-foot lengths. This variety allows you to select the precise amount of tubing needed for your specific garden layout.
