The 3-Way Hose Splitter is a specialized manifold designed specifically to solve the crowding issues common with standard garden splitters. Unlike typical "Y" connectors that position outlets too close together, this unit features extra-wide spacing between its three ports. This unique design allows you to install multiple battery-operated water timers side-by-side without them bumping into each other or blocking access to the valves.
Constructed with a high-flow PVC body and a reinforced brass swivel inlet, this splitter serves as a durable hub for your faucet. It is one of our most requested irrigation fittings for gardeners who need to expand a single spigot into three independent zones—perfect for running a drip system, a soaker hose, and a standard garden hose simultaneously.
Specifics for planning your faucet assembly.

Option 1: Direct Faucet Mount
Ensure the washer is seated in the brass swivel. Screw the swivel onto your outdoor spigot. Hand-tighten only.
Option 2: Ground Mounting (Recommended for Timers)
If using multiple heavy water timers, we recommend attaching a short Leader Hose to your faucet and connecting the 3-Way Splitter to the other end. Laying the splitter on the ground prevents the weight of the timers from damaging your plumbing or the manifold itself.
Winterizing
Remove the splitter and all attached timers from the faucet before freezing temperatures arrive. Drain all water to prevent the PVC body from cracking.
