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.

Didn't know you could even buy w5/8" polyi or pvc. That's mighty
small hole to push water that far. There is a reason why plumbing
tables increase pipe size for distance.


Nope, plumbing tables increase pipe diameter by how many taps branch
off... there is no benefit to increasing diameter for just point to
point. You obviously don't own your own home.


Sounds like someone is an "expert" who doesn't understand both basic
physics and standard practice that results from it..
