FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
A CS soaker hose is an irrigation hose designed for efficient water distribution in garden watering. Small pores allow tiny "beads" of water to seep out of the soaker hose and slowly penetrate the roots of plants, minimizing water waste and evaporation while distributing moisture evenly.
A water filter for the CS Soaker Hose is essential to prevent dirt particles and sediments from entering the hose and clogging the microporous pores.
The CS soaker hose is manufactured in Germany, making it a "Made in Germany" product.
The optimal watering duration with a CS Soaker Hose depends on various factors.
- Vegetable garden: 20–30 minutes per watering session, 3–4 times a week
- Ornamental plants and flower beds: 10–20 minutes
- Hedges, trees, and lawns: 25–30 minutes
Soil composition: Lehmige Böden benötigen weniger häufige Bewässerung.
Weather conditions: Water more frequently in hot, dry weather, and less in cool conditions.
The CS Soaker Hose is made from recycled materials, including recycled tires and polyethylene.
Yes, the CS Soaker Hose is frost-resistant and can remain installed during the winter without any problems.
CS Soaker Hoses release approximately 6–8 liters per meter per hour, and around 8–10 liters per meter per hour when used without pressure.
Example: 7 liters/hour x 10 meters x 20 minutes = approximately 23 liters of water consumption.
Der CS Perlschlauch eignet sich für Gemüsebeete, Hochbeete, Rabatten, Hecken und Rasenflächen.
Soaker hoses operate at low pressure, so consistent, pressure-regulated pumps are ideal.
Compared to sprinklers, the soaker hose allows for targeted, water-saving irrigation directly at the root.
With hard water, underground installation helps reduce lime buildup, as deposits form more slowly.
Yes, if it is covered with mulch or similar materials. However, burying is recommended.
Underground installation reduces evaporation, while above-ground is easier but less efficient.
A pressure reducer protects the fine pores of the soaker hose from excessive water pressure.
Significantly lower water consumption, targeted irrigation, fewer diseases – cost-saving in the long run.
A pressure reducer controls the pressure, while a flow restrictor regulates the amount of water. A combination of both is useful for lengths up to approx. 50 m.
Rub with cooking oil and insert gently (do not twist!) to avoid damaging the hose.
