Garden Hose Nozzles – Buyer’s Guide

A garden hose nozzle is a garden hose nozzle, right? There’s not much to it really. The nozzle is the bit at the end of the hose which determines speed and direction of the water flow. Oh yes, you can manipulate the manner in which water shoots from the hose but that’s about it. Isn’t it?

No, it’s not as simple as that. Garden care is an ever-evolving business and so many options are available in every aspect of gardening, it’s little wonder to learn that the humble garden nozzle now contains myriad choices and a bewildering array of options when it comes to selecting the optimum one.

In addition, manufacturers have made clever timesaving, environmentally friendly enhancements to garden hose nozzles so consumers need a guide before they choose. Manufacturers have also factored in what could be termed the end-use: does the buyer need their product purely for gardening or will it be used for pressure-cleaning or some other household chore?

So, let’s take a closer look at what buyers should bear in mind when making their purchase.

Features of a Garden Hose Nozzle

The main considerations when choosing one of the vast arrays on sale include:

Composition

A garden hose nozzle consists of two main parts: handle and sprayer which can be made of different materials. Some will be fashioned from plastic, others from metal and others still composed from an amalgam.

Hose nozzles made from plastic are more lightweight than the metal equivalent which will be an advantage if deployed on a hot summer’s day. However, the downside of being lighter is less durability coupled with a propensity to break easily. Such products are also susceptible to the glare of sunlight and prone to leakage.

Hose nozzles fashioned entirely from plastic aren’t something which we would endorse. Metal hose nozzles, on the other hand, are favored by most for their solidity and durability. They are longer-lasting, more aesthetically pleasing but are encumbered by a weight disadvantage. The most common components are stainless steel, aluminum or brass; the latter being the heaviest.

The other type of hose nozzle combines metal with plastic. For reasons stated above, the most desirable nozzle is fashioned from metal but allying it with a plastic handle reduces the weight (think of those hot summer days!) while maintaining the robustness and life span.

Style

Again, there are choices with seven main types:

  1. Pistol Grip: Think of a hand gun and you’ve got it. It has a trigger which, when pressed, releases water and also controls its flow: releasing the trigger stops the flow of water. These nozzles habitually consist of plastic or aluminum or a combination. Their propensity to wear and tear should be borne in mind and investing in a superior quality version repays the extra expenditure.
  1. Traditional: The traditional nozzle has a barrel at the end which when twisted determines the volume of water flowing through and also the manner of its discharge i.e. a mist or jet and facilitates quick cessation of the flow.
  1. Watering Wand: This nozzle has an extension at the end giving the user an extended reach and is particularly adept when watering hanging baskets or garden beds of a deeper. Some watering wands feature a cut-off valve or trigger which gives more control over the flow and direction, alleviating any requirement to switch off the water at source.
  1. Dial or Turret: Dial (or turret) nozzles have a dial allowing the user to switch through a range of spray patterns – jet, mist, centre spray, flood, flat soak, cone and others. They are a boon to gardeners in making the full range of spray patterns accessible at the turn of the dial. Gardeners whose gardens require differing flows of hydration will be attracted to nozzles such as these especially where there it is incumbent upon them to frequently (and quickly) alternate between spray patterns. Flowers and plants of a more delicate disposition will benefit from the mist pattern whereas hardier types can be accommodated by a steadier stream of water – all emanating from the same source. This nozzle is usually of a plastic composition, but it can also be composed of metal.
  1. Fireman: The name is self-explanatory; this nozzle has a strong flow of water and is preferred by people who are washing their car. It is also used in the garden to provide hydration for robust flowers and plants or a gentler spray for shrubbery located a distance from the user. A further use of this type of nozzle is to pressure hose pavements or concreted sections of the garden. The flow of water is controlled by twisting the nozzle. The better-quality fireman models boast a rubberized coating protecting the nozzle – an important feature given the potential for its proximity to cars resulting in it being driven over.
  1. Fan: Again, the clue lies in the name. Fan nozzles release water in a gyratory motion making them the ideal type for gardens of a smaller stature and for plants, flowers and shrubs located outdoors, particularly those of a frailer nature.
  1. Soaker: Soaker (also known as bubbler) nozzles are different to those listed above because they drip-release water rather than spray it. Like fan nozzles, they work particularly well with delicate flowers and plants. Soaker nozzles have a unique advantage over other types: spraying or hosing plants and shrubs can be at odds with the ground temperature – for example, dousing sun-parched soil with cold water can sometimes be detrimental – but a slow release of hydration will adapt to the ground conditions.

Spray patterns

In the range of nozzles listed above, reference is made to spray patterns; these features being crucial to the choice of product made by a gardener. The composition of a garden (whether populated by delicate or robust plants, shrubs and flowers or a mixture thereof) will be foremost in the mind of somebody purchasing a hose nozzle. Choosing one which represents the best fit for the needs of one’s garden will repay the time taken in doing so by saving water and effort. A nozzle which incorporates all spraying actions is the optimum solution here.

Connection

Most hoses have a plastic or metal fitting at the end connected to the hose. Dependent upon the country, there are standard thread sizes which must be adhered to ensuring that the hose and nozzle connect correctly. The US standard fitting is called GHT (garden hose thread) whereas the UK fitting is BSP (British standard pipe). One should be cognizant of this when making a choice.

Other basic facts to remember include using a washer which ensures the user’s choice of nozzle and hose are a perfect fit. This eliminates any possibility of leaks.

Another time-saving device is to use a quick-connect system which snaps in place the component parts rather than screw them together. A solid nozzle (either brass or aluminum) is more effective than a plastic nozzle because of its robustness. The plastic equivalent is prone to fracture.

Flow Rate

The flow of water from a garden hose varies from 2.5 to 5 gallons per minute. It should be borne in mind that the flow rate is not a major determinant when choosing which product to buy as most nozzles can adapt to the water pressure level supplying the hose.

Shut-Off Valve

The ability to switch off the flow of water when one needs to is inherent to most hose nozzles and of importance in these days when we are conscious of reducing our consumption of this natural resource. Cutting off the flow of water by releasing the trigger or twisting the barrel will achieve this.

Dimension

The diameter size of a typical garden hose nozzle is one of the below:

  • 3/8 inch;
  • ½ inch;
  • Âľ inch;
  • 5/8 inch;
  • 1 inch.

Most people find that the 5/8 inch hose will meet their gardening requirements.

If all of the above factors are borne in mind, the selection of the garden hose nozzle which is best suited to your requirements will become easier. You may need the hose for a range of tasks so choosing one with a corresponding range of spray patterns is the optimum choice. Having read through the advice above, you will now realize that a garden hose nozzle isn’t just a garden hose nozzle, it’s a more complex device which merits some thought before purchase. We hope that the above helps you make that choice.

Conclusion

Garden hose nozzles, as mentioned at the beginning of this guide, aren’t simply something which goes on to the end of the hose. They have to be chosen with the needs of the gardener and the plants, shrubs and flowers being watered in mind. The range of power, functionality, durability and ease-of-use encapsulated in garden hose nozzles should satisfy even the most discerning user. Hopefully, this guide will help.

    If you don’t know what nozzle to choose, pay attention to the material it’s made from. I have a great experience in using some metal nozzles, they’re working effective much longer than plastic ones. Of course, it shouldn’t be very heavy, just try to find a gold middle. Good luck!

    The most important thing in sustaining the garden is giving enough water for all flowers and trees. Nozzles are very helpful and it’ll be good if the nozzle you bought wouldn’t break after a month of using. I made my choice a couple of months ago and everything is still alright. Hope, my nozzle will be working as good as it does now because I want to buy some new trees which will need tonnes of water.

It was love at first sight! First of all, it’s very comfortable to hold this nozzle in a hand. The second thing you see when holding it – quality. It’s made so well, the materials are expensive, it can be seen. Also, I like all its features, it many settings which are suitable for every situation. So, not to write more, it’s the best product I could get for this price. Recommend it to everybody.

    While choosing a garden nozzle don’t be afraid to ask for a piece of advice your neighbor or relative. I thought that only guides and forums could give me the answer what to buy, but all my hesitations were gone away when I just bought a nozzle which my neighbor uses. He said it’s quite cheap and works about 2 years without problems.

    I didn’t have much money for buying a nozzle, that’s why I was looking only for budget options. It was so hard to find something with positive reviews and that will be durable. I saw The Beckett Pond PVC Liner and couldn’t think of other nozzles. Look at the design and pros and cons. I suppose it was a good choice as it has been working without any problems for about 3 months already.

I’m so angry now not only because of the friend’s behavior but because I have to spend a lot of hours searching for a new nozzle.

    I don’t know what to say about nozzles really. Mine is The Gilmore Super Duty and firstly I read it like “glamour” and it made me laugh. So now I’m standing in the garden with this glamorous nozzle every week and I didn’t find any leaks or troubles, everything works as it’s noted.

    I’m so disappointed about all the hose nozzles I had. They work not the same as it’s mentioned in descriptions. I hope someday I’ll find it but it seems like not today.

    The Lifecolor Garden Hose Nozzle is the best option for me. The materials which it’s made from, the pressure it makes – the things I like about this nozzle the most.

    I’ve seen the most beautiful and powerful garden nozzle in my neighbors’ yard but I didn’t ask them what it was. I’ve spent three hours already searching it and your website doesn’t contain it too.

    It’s said that The iKris Garden Hose Nozzle is very durable but I won’t prove this. It has been working for me only for two months and now it’s broken. Maybe I used it in a wrong way or I’m just unlucky but it doesn’t change the fact that now I should find something else.

    I like products made by lifecolor and a hose nozzle isn’t an exception for me. Lifecolor Garden Hose Nozzle is the one which changes the process of watering and you can’t use anything else.

    My previous hose nozzle was bought on sale and now it’s broken. The problem is that I can’t buy the same one as it costs much. Unfortunately, there are no alternatives. all the other nozzles seem to be worse.

      I don’t agree with your opinion just because this nozzle worked differently for me. I haven’t noticed this strongest spray that you’re speaking about, but maybe it’s because my previous nozzle was a little bit more powerful.

    I can’t say that Gilmour Medium Duty Metal is the best of all and you should take all your money and spend on this hose nozzle, but it works quite well and copes with everything. I’ve been using this nozzle for about a year, but I hope it’ll be even more durable.

    I’m trying to find a light option which will be durable and won’t take so much time. The last hose nozzle that I had was too heavy, also the water pressure wasn’t strong enough. As a result, I\ve been using it for hours for my little garden as I had to make stops.

    The most important detail about the hose nozzles for me is lightweight and easiness of usage. Gilmour Super Duty answers to all my demands. Recommend to everyone who’s concerned about options suitable for any health and condition.

    I don’t remember when I bought my last hose nozzle, it worked so well. But I lost it when we were moving to the other house and can’t find something similar on the market. The problem is that I don’t remember the brand, the characteristics, I’m just lost and disappointed that I’ll never find the nozzle I’m searching for.

    Bon-Aire HN-10C Original Ultimate Hose Nozzle is very comfortable to use and has 5 watering patterns which can’t leave me indifferent. After receiving this nozzle, I’ve never had any problems. And I hope, I won’t have them in the future. It’s a good product, so I can recommend it to other garden owners.

    Nelson Fireman isn’t the most popular hose nozzle, on this site especially, that’s why I want to tell you about it. It’s a great option for washing your car. I haven’t tried it for other duties, but in this case, it works really well.

    For me, there’s nothing more important than time. If I spend too much time on assembling and using the product – it’s a bad product for me. By following this logic, I can say that there are very few good options on the market. And I’m still searching for the ideal one for me.

    Of all the nozzles, The Nelson Fireman blends are the coolest! By deciding the pressure, you can select an option. If you want, you clean the carpet, if you want, you wash the car, and if you want, you water the flowers. It can anything!

    Even though “we all know,” “metal” is synonymous with rusting , stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and even tin (sorry, Wizard of Oz fans) do not rust. What, was your uncle a professor of metallurgy at MIT?
