Puutarhajohtimella

Puutarhajohtimella, a Finnish term, translates to "garden hose" in English. It is a flexible tube used to convey water from a source, typically an outdoor tap, to a desired location within a garden or other outdoor space. Garden hoses are commonly made from rubber, vinyl, or a combination of both materials, designed to withstand varying weather conditions and water pressure.

The primary function of a puutarhajohtimella is to provide a convenient and efficient way to water plants, lawns, and other vegetation. They are also used for cleaning patios, driveways, and outdoor equipment, as well as for filling swimming pools or other water containers. Different lengths and diameters are available to suit various needs, with longer hoses allowing for greater reach and thicker hoses generally supporting higher water flow.

Accessories can be attached to the end of a puutarhajohtimella to control the water flow and spray pattern. These include nozzles, spray guns, and sprinklers, which can be adjusted for different watering tasks, from a gentle mist for delicate plants to a powerful jet for cleaning. Proper storage and maintenance, such as draining the hose after use and storing it away from direct sunlight, can prolong its lifespan.
