The Garden Mile 2-Way Brass Hose Splitter is designed for homeowners and gardeners who need to manage multiple irrigation tasks simultaneously from a single outdoor faucet. Its primary benefit is the ability to run two separate water lines at once with independent flow control, though users should note that significant water pressure drops may occur if both outlets are utilized at full capacity simultaneously.

Yes, it is designed to fit standard garden hose faucets used in most residential settings.
Yes, the brass threads are compatible with both plastic and metal hose connectors.
No, the brass construction is highly resistant to rust and oxidation.
Yes, each outlet has its own dedicated shut-off valve.
It is recommended to remove it during freezing temperatures to prevent potential damage from expanding ice.
Ensure the internal rubber washer is present and correctly seated. If it remains loose, check if the faucet threading is compatible or use plumber's tape.
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the valve mechanism to ensure smooth operation.
Check that both valves are fully open. If using both outlets simultaneously, pressure will be shared between them.
Installation is straightforward: ensure your outdoor faucet has a standard thread, then screw the brass inlet onto the tap by hand until firm. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the internal seal. For maintenance, check the internal rubber washers periodically for signs of dry rot or wear, replacing them if leaks appear. If you live in a region with freezing winter temperatures, remove the splitter from the tap during the winter months to prevent water inside the metal from freezing and causing cracks.
