We have now purchased one and are almost ready to go....are there any
suggestions on the type of hose to use or not use. We have noticed that all
the hoses at H.D. & Lowe's have the statement that they are not intended for
constant pressure. What is being used and where do you find a hose that
will be under constant pressure? Thanks

The one I have been using for 3 years now was purchases at a regular
building/garden supply but was recommended for farm use I belive. It is
a heavy black reinforced rubber. It you buy a top quality rubbere
hose not plastic I think you should be OK. I suggest when you set it up
that you experiment a bit to determine the mimimum tap setting that
provides enough water to operate. That way it it does ever spring a
leak it cant flow the maximum volume of water while you are away.
Cheers.
