Does this work only above ground or can I bury it for watering my homes foundation?

Will work either location. Be careful not to create backflow if used underground. Draining to prevent freezing could be an issue if underground

As long as you're using only the emitter hose, it should work underground. I don't know how many years it will last. The hose is prone to kinking at the emitter sites and should be buried carefully where there are sharp turns, as at the corners of a foundation. My hoses are buried under heavy mulch and sometimes an inch or two of soil.

No ! The hose will not deliver water if the differential pressure between the soil pressure is higher than the water pressure supplying the hose, and the flow will be reduced by some rate depending on the burial depth.

This pipe can be buried. Not sure why you would water your foundation but to each their own.

This adapter is a 3/4" Female Garden Hose Thread to a 1/2" drip line. I would keep it above the ground, but I guess you could bury it if you wanted to.

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

It should work. I placed it underneath a concrete urn on top of a fountain. It works fine

It does have a connector for a garden hose. Not exactly sure how far your trying to pump it. This pump Can't be totally submersed under water, just in case you are talking about putting it at the bottom of a barrel. It will only lift water about 4 ft above it, so take that into consideration. Might be ok for a small garden or light watering, since it's run off of batteries. Feel free to ask me again, if you still need assistance. Thank you very much, Jt's Online Deals!

Absolutely. Mine is on a concrete slab under a covered porch. Just remember there is no floor so anything touching the floor would get wet if you had a moisture issue.

husband used it on our indoor, but he said you should check with the manufacturer , to see what you would need for above ground. he said that you should be able to use it , on above ground. it really works good.

This is not a soaker line (which is what you would use for underground watering) but I believe you could modify the drip endings with a fabric wrap of some sort to make a low volume underground line

No and no. I agree w/ Don; use water tight electrical conduit if you need to bury it. That's what I'm going to do when I run it out to my gate intercom system.

I suppose you could leave it on a concrete slab but that would limit the root depth to just 6-9 inches and might be inadequate for larger plants. If placed directly on the lawn, the grass under will die. I dug up the lawn under the raised garden bed. I cut the grass into square sections about 9 inches deep and turned the sections upside down. My thought was that it would provide a deeper dirt section for the garden and the grass would serve as an organic nutrient source down deeper in the garden. The grass did not grow back and the garden has done well for a few years now. I do have add about 3-6 inches of garden soil every year. The garden soil from miracle grow is easy to use but because of the high organic volumes it shrinks a lot during the year.

No it cannot be used for above ground pool. It has a base at the bottom that needs to be secured with anchour bolts.

Yes , it just takes enough rain/water to soak it into ground. Even if it doesnt rain a lot it will help get granules down against the dirt/soil

not as long as you keep the best level. The water will spray out eventually. But using the collection trailers helps a lot

my property is not flat either and it works great. The grade of the land won't have much affect. The sprinkler is quite heavy and has some pretty good teeth on the wheels. What will have more impact is the amount of hose it starts to drag behind after a couple hours.

No. I would say that it was built to be water replant. I would not put it under water under any circumstance and expect the unit to continue working.

Yes it can go underground and should. The end of the drain needs to be open and drained to a lower area. Try to compact the soil on the sides while burying.

Is the container full of mud or something-not allowing the drain hose to flow? The rain barrel works best if installed on platform at least 2 feet off the ground & even then you would only have trickle going through a twenty foot water hose without "pressure or gravity." I fill watering can or bucket and carry to plants or pots with rain water.
