Connections for Leaky Pipe
A Hosepipe Ban means you are unable to use your hosepipe for watering the garden or plants in your garden at home. It is intended to make the best use of valuable water supplies that are in short supply. LeakyPipe has a similar ethos as it uses less water than a hosepipe for watering the garden, and it delivers water direct to the soil. It works even more efficiently used sub-surface under a layer of mulch or soil.
In hosepipe bans, drip or trickle irrigation systems are often permitted in the following circumstances:
- The system must be fitted with a pressure reducing valve and a timer
- The system must place water drip by drip directly onto the soil surface, or beneath the soil surface, without any surface run off. (LeakyPipe does this)
We have put a kit together which meets these requirements. The timer and adjustable pressure reducing valve are preassembled with PTFE tape. The kit includes 50m of LeakyPipe, a hosesnap connector for easy hook up (hozelock compatible), and 2 simple push-fit plugs ends.
The LeakyPipe does not connect direct to the timer/pressure regulator and you will need to provide a length of hosepipe to carry the water from the timer to the LeakyPipe area. This avoids watering the in-between areas of paths, patios etc, unnecessarily. Hosesnap / Hozelock type fittings are compatible.
You will need:
- 2x 1.5V AA batteries for the tap timer
- A length of non-leaking pipe eg hosepipe, to carry the water from the pressure regulator to the area you want to water with LeakyPipe. You will need female hozelock type connectors on your pipe.
- scissors or secateurs to cut the LeakyPipe to length,
- simple self-assembly using push-fit connectors which grip the inside of the LeakyPipe without the need for clips.
- Once you see the LeakyPipe working, cover with a layer of mulch or soil.

How and where to use this Hedge Watering Kit?
This is a great deal for raised borders, raised troughs or planters with a total area of up to 50m2. Kits includes push-fit connectors and options for Supply Pipe.
A comprehensive Kit to discreetly water up to 50m2 of raised beds or planters. Customise your kit by selecting sufficient connectors for 5-10 raised beds and choose between several options for supply pipe.
This kit includes lots of push-fit 'elbow' connectors to help fit an irrigation system to existing raised beds, borders, planters and troughs. You will need non-leaking supply pipe to carry the water up and over the wall of your bed. You can choose supply pipe to be included in your kit, or use small amounts of 1/2" garden hosepipe, which will also work with the connectors. Once at soil level, the pipe size 'reduces' down to that of LeakyPipe.
The LeakyPipe can be laid on the surface or covered in mulch which helps water wicking away from the LeakyPipe. Arrange the LeakyPipe around your plants. Moisture spreads outwards for about 12 inches / 30cm either side. If you need to branch the LeakyPipe within the bed, 'tee' connectors are included, as are 'plugs' for the ends of LeakyPipe. A nail-in pipe clip keeps the pipe neatly in place on top of the wall of your raised bed / border. Lastly, a quick-connect hose-snap connector will allow connection to your garden hose.
This Kit includes a 100m roll of LP12H LeakyPipe, which is designed to be ideal for general purpose watering, working up to 50metres from the barbed connections. It has proven to last in excess of ten years.
How to customise your kit
- Select the number of raised beds you have
- Select if you would like any supply pipe (size and length). The fittings will be adjusted to ensure they are compatible with your selection.
- Double check the total area of your beds do not exceed 50m2 - this will ensure that 100m of LeakyPipe at 50cm spacing is sufficient for your beds.
Items included:
- 100m roll of LeakyPipe LP12H Porous Rubber Hose.
- 3 of 16-16-16 tees. (allows branching of the supply pipe network)
- 2 of 16 elbows. (may be useful for supply network)
- 4 of 16 plugs. (A tidy way of sealing supply pipe or garden hose).
- 2 of 12-12 connectors. (To connect Leaky-Leaky, a useful repairer).
- 1 of HoseSnap to 16mm single connector (quick snap-on connection to regular garden hose)
Each bed will get an additional set of:
- 1 of 16-16-16 tee. (To branch supply pipe up behind your bed)
- 3 of 16 elbows (To bring supply pipe neatly over the wall of the raised bed)
- 1 of 16-12 reducer (To reduce pipe size to that of LeakyPipe)
- 1 of 12-12-12 tee (To branch LeakyPipe within the bed)
- 2 of 12 plugs (to seal the end of LeakyPipes)
- 1 of nail-in pipe clip (To keep supply pipe neatly in place on top of the retaining wall)
Imagine this. Firstly, find a way of running the Supply tubing onto all the places you wish to water. Use the Tee connection fittings and a pair of cutters, to tailor the tubing to give you a "Distribution Network" to carry the water to where you will be connecting the Leaky Pipe with the reducing connections. Run the LeakyPipe near to the plants, - (within 30-50cm as the water will spread laterally) and plug the ends. (See this Video about fittings).

A discounted kit for watering raised borders, raised troughs or planters with a total area of up to 50m2. Create a professional finish with all pipework concealed during construction of the beds. Kits are customisable for the number of raised beds and size of supply pipe.
A Kit created for landscape constructors to incorporate watering facilities during the construction of raised beds or planters. The Kits comprises professional leak-free compression fittings and sufficient LeakyPipe to irrigate up to 50m2 of raised beds, planters or troughs.
This kit is designed to be installed at the construction stage of creating raised beds. The fittings allow water to be brought up inside the bed or planter via a 'riser' to the surface of the soil. This gives a neat, clean professional look. The 'network' or supply pipe is best created with 20mm or 25mm blue MDPE pipe. The blue pipe isn't included in the kit, but a tee and elbow compression fittings are included to help you create the network. Once at soil level, an elbow fitting allows LeakyPipe to be laid on the surface or covered in mulch which helps water to wick away from the LeakyPipe. Arrange the LeakyPipe around the plants. Moisture spreads outwards for about 12 inches / 30cm either side. The free ends of the LeakyPipe are sealed with the included 'plugs'.
In planning your system, think about how you want to create a network of supply pipe to carry water to each of the beds. 20mm or 25mm blue MDPE pipe is ideal for burying underground. MDPE pipe isn't included in this kit, but a tee and elbow compression fittings are included to help you create the network. Also included is a fitting to connect to your water source - options here include a compression-3/4" adaptor to create a leak-free connection with the bottom of a timer or 3/4" tap thread OR a compression to HoseSnap fitting to allow quick hook-up to standard HoseSnap fittings on normal garden hosepipe.
This Kit includes a 100m roll of LP12H LeakyPipe, which is designed to be ideal for general purpose watering, working up to 50metres from the barbed connections. It has proven to last in excess of ten years.
How to customise your kit.
- Select the number of raised beds you have
- Select the supply pipe size you intend to use. The fittings will be adjusted to ensure they are compatible with your selection.
- Choose a hook-up option, dependent on how you plan to feed water into the pipework.
- Double check the total area of your beds do not exceed 50m2 - this will ensure that 50m of LeakyPipe at 50cm spacing is sufficient for your beds.
Items included:
- 100m roll of LeakyPipe LP12H Porous Rubber Hose.
- 1 of 20/25 compression to 3/4" female fitting OR 20/25 compression to HoseSnap fitting
- 1 of 20/25 compression tee. (for branching of supply network)
- 1 of 20/25 compression elbow. (for riser within terminal bed)
- 2 of 12-12 connectors. (To connect Leaky-Leaky, a useful repairer).
Each bed will get an additional set of:
- 1 of 20/25 compression tee. (To branch supply pipe up as a riser within each bed)
- 1 of 20/25 compression elbow to LeakyPipe tee (To allow connection to 2 LeakyPipe lengths within each bed)
- 2 of 12 plugs (to seal the end of LeakyPipes)
Imagine this. Firstly, find a way of running the Supply Pipe onto all the places you wish to water. Use the compression fittings to tailor the pipe to give you a "Distribution Network" to carry the water to each raised bed. Compression tee under each bed will allow creation of a 'riser' to bring the water to the surface of the soil. Here you will be connecting the Leaky Pipes via the compression elbow. Run the LeakyPipe near to the plants, - (within 30-50cm as the water will spread laterally) and plug the ends. (See this Video about fittings).
