BRADAS AQUA-DROP WAD1 Soaker Hose 1/2" - 50m
Code: OZ_SH-001125CProduct detailed description
What water savings does the Rosnička 50 m soaker hose provide?
The soaker hose, 50 meters long with a diameter of 1/2" (16 mm), enables precise irrigation of the root zone through fine micropores. Compared to flat surface watering, it can reduce water consumption by up to 70%. At an optimal pressure of 0.7 bar, it provides a stable output of 0.76 to 1.26 liters per hour for every running meter.
What material is the soaker hose made of?
The irrigation hose is made of 100% recycled rubber combined with resin. This certified blend of materials ensures exceptional resistance to frost, extreme temperatures and UV radiation. Despite its high strength, the hose remains flexible, making it easy to guide precisely between plants in both ornamental and vegetable beds.
How to properly install a 50-meter soaker hose?
Unlike shorter variants, the 50 m coil does not have quick-connect adapters pressed on. It is connected modularly using standard 16 mm push-fit or screw fittings. To maintain even water seepage, we do not recommend exceeding a length of 30 meters for a single continuous branch. Before first use, the entire system must be thoroughly bled of air.
What are the technical parameters and ground installation options?
The hose can be freely laid on the surface, covered with mulch bark, or, to minimize evaporation, buried underground to a maximum depth of 20 cm. The system must not be used to distribute drinking water or hot water. When connecting to a public water supply or a pump, a pressure regulator must be used.

Frequently asked questions about the Rosnička 50 m soaker hose (FAQ)
How deep can I bury the soaker hose in the ground?
You can safely bury the hose underground to a maximum depth of 20 cm. Such placement limits evaporation and delivers water directly to the roots. Alternatively, it can be routed along the surface and covered with a layer of mulch bark.
What water pressure is needed for proper operation?
The ideal operating pressure is 0.7 bar, with an upper limit of 1 bar. When supplying water from a standard water main or a pump, a pressure regulator must be used, otherwise the hose wall may be damaged and the micropores disrupted.
Why doesn't the 50 m version have a pressed-on quick-connect adapter?
Compared to shorter versions, the 50-meter coil is supplied without fixed end fittings. This allows for precise shortening and connecting using standard 16 mm fittings according to the dimensions of your garden bed.
Can the entire 50 meters be connected into one continuous line?
To ensure even seepage, a single branch must not exceed 30 meters in length. We recommend dividing the 50 m coil using T-pieces into two or more parallel irrigation circuits.
