I recently bought a couple garden hose quick connect setups and now I would like to add a couple more but the store it out for the season? Are they universal or do you need to buy all the same brand? Anyone know for sure. Sort of expensive for trial and error?

Winterizing Rapid Reel Garden Hose Reels

Demonstration of how to properly winterize a Rapid Reel garden hose reel

Say you have a garden hose and it’s turned on but it has a hand sprayer nozzle on the one end on the hose so the water doesn’t come out until you release it. Then at the other end it’s connected to the spigot. How is it that water is still coming out of the spigot and the hose doesn’t burst from all the water build up?

I’d like a very short garden hose that I can connect to my bathroom fawcet, so I can more easily and effectively wash the tile inside of my shower. I have 11ft ceilings and the tile goes all the way up.

I already puchased the adaptors so I can connect a standard garden hose to the sink fawcet. The shortest hose I can find is 15ft., which is still much longer than I need.

Thanks!

Attaching the Garden Hose to the Reel

How to install a garden hose onto a 2009 version of a Rapid Reel garden hose reel

I would like to water my front and backyard at the same time. I have to garden hoses and would to connect them to one spigot.
I tried it with a v-splitter but experienced very low pressure. If I turn one side off than one hose gets enough pressure.

Any suggestions or is this even possible???

If one hose is connected the pressure is fine.

Every hose I have, that connects to another hose to keep the garden hose rolled, leaks. Even threaded properly, they all leak. The expensive hose, the less expensive one, all of them!

Any suggestions appreciated.

I have a crank garden hose reel. Whenever I turn on the water, the hose that is connected to the case becomes disconnected.

Hello, I am trying to use the outdoor faucet of my town home. It seems that the thread on the faucet is not ght (garden hose thread). I measured the pitch of the faucet to be 1.25, is there an adapter I can get?
I am assuming this wouldn’t be sold at a garden store because the thread size on this faucet is probably not commmon?
