Is this tubing(the brown color) for above ground or under ground installation? I asked rain bird customer support - but they are mute.

Suitable for both. Made up of HDPE, so resistant to sunlight. Drip points won't clog easily with the pressure of water. For annuals I would like it above ground, for perennials, better to be underground and left forever.

Above ground. You run it along the base of your trees/shrubs and can then cover with mulch.

We use it above ground. I believe there is a different product if you are looking for the flexible underground irrigation tubing.

Looking in their customer catalog, it shows the tubing used only above ground. Although I'm using it below ground very successfully. I'm quite pleased with this product, since I live in Florida and do not want to waste water I have it installed under new sod I put in, and frankly speaking it has been 6 week, and I have a lush beautiful green lawn. Hope this helps

I would guess either would be fine. I use mine above ground but under mulch to reduce water temp and evaporation losses.

Above Ground Use Only. Inground Filter Systems are entirely different due to pvc piping configurations for their own individual pools.

I would honestly have to say no, the box stated for above ground pools. We do have ours roof mounted, but they can also be placed on the ground. We also only have 10,000 gallons of water and we have 2 panels. They do sell a similar ones specifically for in ground pools. Wish I could be more helpful....

The clear plastic seed tube (which is very heavy duty) fits inside of the all metal mesh shroud. The top rim of the seed tube fits about 1/2" below the top cover of the metal shroud. If it was sealed there would condensation and you don't want that. I have had some very heavy rain storms this spring and surprisingly the seeds have not gotten wet. But normally I have to fill it everyday anyway. I believe if you purchase one, you will delightfully worry more about keeping it fill with seed than the rain getting in!! Happy Birding!

Yes it will work on above ground pools. However I suggest you do not buy this one. It only lasted three months and the light filled with water and failed.

The black tubing that goes from pump to box or the tubing you add for extra water fall? I'll measure if you tell me but its all underwater so this info would be really helpful!

You can specify whatever color you like when you order it. Ours is a brownish color and it matches our hot tub perfectly. No rain will penetrate it. The rain rolls right off.

I can't respond to the specific brand of above ground pool - Intex - because we have a different brand of pool. Our pool is above ground, with rigid metal sides that are very sturdy - it was installed by a pool shop. The cleaner works very well in our pool.

I would like to find an attachment as well. With my previous inground pool I had no problem but above ground is different.

I am sorry, I really don't know the answer to this question. Mine were installed with the tubing.

Mrs. S that's exactly what the tank is... you mount it up higher than the board so that it gives you a gravity fed stream of water. The tubing is just the normal line between you and the tank. I hope that helps clarify.

It did not work for my in ground. It would not prime when above the water level. If your pump sits below water level it may work for you.

I would go back to Amazon or company who made the birdbath.My instructions were burnt up in an apt fire.Mine currently sits on top of 5 Gal bucket of course Im on 1st floor now.Not sure what will happen when I go back to old apt as the bracket for mounting is LONG gone.

It is a pain if the unit is not elevated. I managed to hook up a tube that drained outside making it much easier. When I first got this unit it would constantly leak over the floor.

When I received the one I ordered it was not askew. Prior to installing it, I would suggest setting it on a surface where the main body is level and locking the rear access panel. Is there any gaps? If so, I would want to do an exchange. It could leak in rainy weather.

I am just in the process of having it built. No tubs. The loam and dirt go in the garden bed. Reading the directions it suggests purchasing wire that is known as "Gopher Wire" to put on the bottom before you put in the loam and top soil. One of the things I read was it requires so much top soil that you can save a bunch of money putting loam on the bottom. I ended up with chicken fencing. plastic with small holes to hopefully keep out critters coming up from under the ground to eat the veggies and herbs.

the tubing is 1/4" outside, not inside. Tubing accomodates the press-on fittings
