Hosepipe
Hi, I need to buy a hosepipe that is 250m long. Is there somewhere that I
can buy one, perhaps straight from a factory or something? Price is a concern to me aswell as I know this could work out expensive. |

Hose pipe is very expensive for that 50m of 25mm mdpe pipe will cost about £15.. pk |

Be careful what you wish for though... without the help of a pump you won't be able to drive a sprinkler or any other irrigation device off typical domestic main pressure at 250m distant. In fact, it might not deliver water at all without the help of gravity. |

Price is a concern to me aswell as I know this could work out expensive. Not seen any hose (eg. Tricoflex) advertised in more than 100m length. Connectors are readily available. The half inch dia stuff is about £50/100m. I use about 1000m in the nursery - although it is pressurised to 60psi and not used in a single length. What is the purpose of your very long pipe ?

You can easily connect two or more lengths of hose together, see: http://www.hozelock.com/productcatal...watering®io n=ROW&hierarchyID=1&hierarchyID2=33&hierarchyID3=3 7 The 2100 9008 Hose Repair Connector would give the strongest join; the 2291 Double Male Connector would work until the hose was put under tension. Both readily available from your local garden centre. |

Thanks for all of your replies. I want to instal a permanant supply to a
piece of land that I have that is 250m away from my garden. If I instal the mdpe pipe (which seems the cheapest) will I have a decent flow at the othr end or is there a pump that I can attach to it to help things along. As I am hoping to get away with doing this as cheap as possible I am hoping to attach the pipe to an outside tap on my house. "p.k." wrote in message ...
