Watering a Hedge
For long rows of plants, hedges, and borders, an even supply of water to the root zone is important. In most cases, the CS Perlschlauch Premium is a suitable solution.
- for long rows of hedges
- close to the ground and unobtrusive
- can be planned with a water filter and pressure reducer
Watering a Raised Bed
Raised beds often dry out faster than traditional garden beds. A soaker hose distributes water evenly and directly to the plants’ root zone.
- for raised beds and herb gardens
- ideal for short runs
- CS Soaker Hose Startup is often a suitable choice
Watering a Vegetable Garde
Vegetable gardens require consistent soil moisture. A CS Soaker Hose allows water to be delivered precisely along the rows of plants.
- for vegetable gardens and planting strips
- ideal for use along rows of plants
- Startup or Premium depending on the required length
Watering Lawns and Large Areas
Larger areas require careful planning of water requirements, pressure, flow rate, supply line, and irrigation zones.
- for larger garden areas
- for lawn and area irrigation
- CS Soaker Hose Profi is usually the most suitable choice
Watering with a Rain Barrel
When using a rain barrel, tank, or cistern, the available water head is crucial. The CS Perlschlauch Drucklos is designed for this application.
- for rain barrels, tanks, and cisterns
- for gravity fed irrigation systems
- water filter recommended
Not Sure Which Option to Choose?
If you are still unsure about the water source, pressure, hose length, or accessories, a brief technical assessment can help. This can prevent the irrigation system from being incorrectly configured.
- Consider water pressure and available water volume separately
- Plan the hose length realistically
- Select suitable accessories
