Measure and sketch out your design. This
way you will be able to tell what fittings and how many of each you will
need, how much poly tubing and how much soaker hose. It is always wise to
buy extra fittings.
From your faucet, you can attach the
following: Timer, Backflow device, Filter, Pressure Regulator, Female hose
end. Also referred to as a "Connection Assembly" See examples below.
Soaker hose and Poly/Mainline Tubing
can be laid in the sun, this will make it a little easier to work with.
Layout your poly and soaker hose in
desired lengths where they will be used and place fittings where they will
go.
Use stakes to hold your tubing in place.
When you are ready to assemble, you
simply push and twist your fittings onto your soaker hose and poly tubing.
On the ends of your line, if you are
using the .580 standard hose, you will need a coupling and cap. If using
the deluxe .700 or professional .820, you will need an end cap.
Before using your system, you need to
flush it out. This will remove any debris that has gotten into your system
during installation.
When you are ready to turn your system
on, just turn your faucet a half of a turn.

show you how to put a system together.
