Garrett from Gurnee, Il writes

With a constant water feed, will the Scarecrow damage my hose or plumbing in any way?

I've made the mistake of leaving the hose on after watering with a handle that stops water flow. After several minutes, my hose burst from the mounting pressure.

Answer:

We have not heard of the ScareCrow Sprinkler Motion Activated Animal Deterrent ruining any good quality hose or plumbing if used as directed. Install a pressure-reducing valve on tap if your water pressure exceeds 80 psi. Opening your tap part way does NOT change the water pressure. Before disconnecting the unit or the hose, always turn water off and activate the unit with your hand to reduce line pressure in the hose.
