Structure Protection Water Distribution

Build a High-Flow Fitting Plan

Choose fittings by hose size and system function. Every fitting below is sold separately, allowing you to match the layout to your water source, hose route, and sprinkler locations.

Distribution & Loop Connections

3/4-Inch Fittings

High-flow splitters, loop-start fittings, and sprinkler takeoffs for 3/4-inch hose systems.


Pump & Large-Supply Connections

1 1/2-Inch Fittings

Aluminum and poly Y fittings for connecting larger water supplies to garden-hose-thread branches.


System Planning

Three Steps to a Balanced Layout

1

Confirm the Water Source

Identify available flow, working pressure, pump outlet size, and elevation change before selecting fittings.

2

Use a Loop for Multiple Sprinklers

For three or more large sprinklers, a full loop can improve water distribution and help balance pressure.

3

Place Takeoffs Where Needed

Use inside-loop fittings for rooftop sprinklers and outside-loop fittings for yard or perimeter coverage.

Typical Residential Reference

Plan Approximately 200–250 Feet for a Full Loop

This commonly equals four or five 50-foot lengths of 3/4-inch hose. Measure the actual route and allow extra length for safe routing and repositioning.

Pump-fed systems: a 1 1/2-inch Y with garden-hose adapters can transition a larger supply to the 3/4-inch distribution system.

Longer Systems

For longer hose runs or higher sprinkler demand, use 1 1/2-inch loop hose with matching 1 1/2-inch fittings. The larger diameter helps reduce friction loss and maintain flow across the system.
