Does this hose reduce water flow?

Yes, it is a smaller diameter hose and restricts water flow. If you are filling a large pool this is not the hose for you. Plenty of waterfor car washing and plant watering.

No, the water flow will diminish. However, you can switch ends that you put the hose in each time you water and it works out pretty well.

I have purchased two of these filters for two seperate showers. The second one I ordered came with a water flow restrictor ring which was an optional use feature. I used the ring on the second shower and now wish I had one for the first as well. Overall I would say the filter alone does not reduce water flow and if it does it's minimal.

I haven't noticed reduced water pressure, but we are lucky to have plenty of water pressure in our area, so I think it will be hard to notice for us

the pressure will not reduce unless the capacity of the pump is not sufficient. most of the time these pumps are way more efficient than the size of the hose so I wouldn't worry about it

Water flow was reduced only slightly hardly noticeable. Works great, been using for years on all our showers.

The unit self doesnt restrict water flow...Im not sure what the adapter is though..

Unless they have changed their materials, the hoses are all made of the same stuff. Mine did kink, but not enough to affect the flow of water. hope this info helps. I really like their product.

None for the gravity flow... It's made for that connection... It's a different connection for the pump, but the necessary hose is included with the dehumidifier....

Ours works very well and makes it easy to put hose away. It seems to unwind easier with water pressure turned off.

I have noticed no reduction in water flow. In fact this sprinkler puts down more water over a larger area than any sprinkler I have owned in the past. The timer does have a manual setting to bypass the timed feature. I rather like being able to set the timer and forget about the thing.

I am not sure what is meant by "restrict flow when connected to just a normal garden hose?", so I really can't answer the question. I use the Orbit with my normal garden hoses & it works fine in delivering water at the appropriate times.

I had no problem with losing water flow. I easily installed the filter using plumbers tape (stops leaks) and made sure it was screwed on well but not so tight that I stripped the threads. It works great for me!

No, if you mean at the hose bib. It just shuts off water going into the wand. There is still water in the hose that will flow if you separate the two.

Yes it does. Take note that this showerhead greatly reduces water pressure.

The flow rate through the pump and filter will be reduced a little. Consider the strain on the motor when the filter is dirty--the tiny bit of additional strain due to smaller diameter hoses will be nothing compared to that.

No. It doesn't restrict water flow when connected to a 5/8 garden hose, works great and I would recommend this product to anyone.
