do not put soaker hose underground otherwise you will have stripes up and down your lawn. with regards to the OPI work for an underground wholesaler and retail is a large part of my business.

We are the distributor for Hunter Industries. If anyone has any questions regarding Underground irrigation I would be more than willing to offer advice, suggestions or answer any questions.

Cheers

Oh i should mention contrary to everyone's belief it's not pressure you are worried about. Irrigation will operate on 30psi it's flow (how many Gallons per Minute) you are concerned with. Each sprinkler uses X many GPM's and certain pipe sizes can only handle X gpm. If you only have 8 GPM trying to run 10 GPM on the zone won't work and thus looks like you don't have enough pressure.
