Swan Element Soaker Pro

Yes, the Swan Element Soaker Pro is designed to be placed under mulch or soil. Covering the hose helps reduce evaporation even further and keeps your garden beds looking tidy.

The hose includes a patented blue water restrictor in the coupling that helps manage pressure automatically. This ensures the water weeps at a controlled, consistent rate rather than spraying or leaking unevenly.

Yes, it is completely safe. The hose is lead-free and phthalate-free, so you do not need to worry about harmful chemicals leaching into your soil or affecting your edible plants.

By delivering water directly to the root systems rather than spraying the air and foliage, this soaker hose can reduce your water usage by up to 70 percent compared to traditional sprinklers.

The hose is constructed from 65 percent recycled rubber, which is durable and flexible. It is lightweight and easy to maneuver around garden beds, though it is best to avoid dragging it over sharp, abrasive surfaces to prolong its lifespan.
