80 cents a foot? That's more pricey than garden hose?

A 500 foot garden hose isn't going to pass much water.



it'll pass as much water as a same sized poly or pvc.

Exactly. That's why you use larger poly or PVC than the common garden
hose.

I used 1" PVC for my home sprinkler system, even though it's way less than 500
feet on any zone. That way I get sufficient water to every sprinkler, and each
head gets similar pressure. Using smaller pipe would lose those advantages when
supplying hagh volume heads.
