Pressure Reducers and Flow Restrictors for CS Soaker Hose

Our pressure reducers and flow restrictors for CS Soaker Hose ensure that your irrigation system operates correctly according to the installed hose length. The pressure reducer lowers the water pressure, while the flow restrictor reduces the incoming water volume.

For best results, combine with a water filter for clean irrigation water and reliable operation.

Important: Use Flow Restrictors Only Up to 30 Meters

For installed CS Soaker Hose lengths of up to 30 meters, a flow restrictor can be used to limit the incoming water volume.

From 30 meters onwards, only a pressure reducer should be used. If a flow restrictor is installed as well, too little water may enter the soaker hose. This can result in uneven water distribution along the hose length.

Your Benefits with Proper Regulation

Control water pressure effectively: the pressure reducer protects your CS Soaker Hose system from excessive water pressure
Limit water volume when needed: the flow restrictor reduces incoming water volume for shorter hose lengths
Extend service life: less stress on the hose, connectors and irrigation components
Simple connection: all CS pressure reducers are preassembled and suitable for standard 1/2 inch quick connect systems
Achieve more even irrigation: the correct setup supports clean and controlled water distribution
Reduce leaks: helps prevent pressure spikes and unnecessary strain within the system

Variant Overview

Which Option Matches Your Hose Length?

Flow Restrictor up to 30 Meters

The flow restrictor reduces the incoming water volume and is suitable for shorter CS Soaker Hose installations up to approximately 30 meters.

Pressure Reducer from 30 Meters

From an installed length of 30 meters, a pressure reducer should be used to ensure sufficient water enters the soaker hose and water distribution remains even.

Do Not Combine a Pressure Reducer and Flow Restrictor Beyond 30 Meters

This combination can reduce water supply too much on longer runs. As a result, insufficient water may reach the end of the soaker hose.

1 Bar or 15 PSI

With a 125 micron filter and compensation outlet for releasing excess water. An economical solution that protects the system while providing additional filtration.

0.69 Bar or 10 PSI

Our premium solution for applications where no water should escape. Especially durable, robust and ideal for controlled and precise pressure regulation.

0.53 Bar or 8 PSI

With a compensation outlet for releasing excess water. An economical solution that protects the system and can help prevent damage.

For long term reliable garden irrigation, we also recommend a water filter to prevent dirt particles from affecting the system.

Pressure Reducer or Flow Restrictor?

Pressure Reducer: reduces water pressure from the supply line to a suitable operating pressure for the CS Soaker Hose
Flow Restrictor: reduces the amount of water entering the soaker hose
Up to 30 Meters: a flow restrictor can be used when the incoming water volume needs to be limited
From 30 Meters: use only a pressure reducer to ensure sufficient water enters the hose

Suitable Applications

Small garden beds and raised beds: a flow restrictor is often sufficient for lengths up to 30 meters
Longer garden beds and hedges: from 30 meters onwards, operation with a pressure reducer is recommended
Premium and Professional systems: use a pressure reducer for even water distribution over longer distances
Mains water operation: a pressure reducer protects the soaker hose from excessive water pressure

With the right combination of a pressure reducer, flow restrictor and water filter, your CS Soaker Hose operates more safely, lasts longer and provides more consistent irrigation. The key factor is the installed hose length: up to 30 meters a flow restrictor can be useful, while from 30 meters onwards only a pressure reducer should be used.
