The cost of leaving a water hose on for 48 hours depends on the flow rate of the hose and local water rates. For example, if a standard garden hose has a flow rate of about 5 gallons per minute, it would use approximately 14,400 gallons of water in 48 hours. With average water costs around $0.01 to $0.02 per gallon, the total cost could range from $144 to $288. Be sure to check your local water rates for a more accurate estimate.
A 100-foot length of 4-inch diameter fire hose filled with water weighs approximately 1,200 to 1,300 pounds. This weight includes the hose itself, which typically weighs around 30-40 pounds, and the water, which adds about 1,000 pounds since water weighs roughly 8.34 pounds per gallon and a 4-inch diameter hose can hold about 50 gallons of water. Thus, the total weight is a combination of the hose and the water it contains.
A standard 50-foot garden hose with a diameter of about 5/8 inch can hold approximately 9-10 gallons of water when fully filled. This volume may vary slightly depending on the hose's diameter and design. Generally, the larger the diameter, the more water it can hold.
A 100-foot section of a 5-inch fire hose holds approximately 40 gallons of water. This calculation is based on the hose's internal diameter and the length of the section. The actual volume can vary slightly depending on the hose's wall thickness and design, but 40 gallons is a common estimate used in fire service.
If you live in a town that has good water pressure and you are using your hose and your neighbor's hose, it should take 24 to 30 hours.
The flow rate of water through a 1-inch hose line can vary based on factors such as pressure and hose length. However, under typical conditions, a 1-inch hose can deliver approximately 320 gallons per minute (GPM) at 60 PSI. This can change with different pressures and hose types, so it's essential to consider specific circumstances for precise calculations.
Cost me $110. $57 for the hose and $35 for the antifreeze.
This will depend on where you live and the cost of water in that region. It will also depend on how hard the hose is turn on and how much water is running from it. For example, if the hose is spraying water at a rate of one litre per second, and the cost of water in your region is one dollar per litre, then it will cost sixty dollars a minute and a total of $3600 for the full hour.
100 feet under water
Assuming the hose has an inner diameter of 1 inch, 100 feet of 3" hose filled with water would weigh approximately 6,242 pounds.
The time it takes to empty an 18,000-gallon pool using a 1.5-inch hose depends on the water flow rate, which typically averages around 10-15 gallons per minute for a hose of that size. At an average rate of 12 gallons per minute, it would take approximately 1,500 minutes, or about 25 hours, to completely empty the pool. However, factors such as hose length, elevation, and water pressure can affect this estimate.
A 2.5 inch fire hose has a capacity of approximately 60 gallons per 100 ft. Therefore, a 50 ft hose would hold around 30 gallons of water.
Fill it with water from a hose with your pump running, wait a couple hours and then test the water and adjust your chemicals.
A 100-foot length of 4-inch diameter fire hose filled with water weighs approximately 1,200 to 1,300 pounds. This weight includes the hose itself, which typically weighs around 30-40 pounds, and the water, which adds about 1,000 pounds since water weighs roughly 8.34 pounds per gallon and a 4-inch diameter hose can hold about 50 gallons of water.

A standard 50-foot garden hose with a diameter of about 5/8 inch can hold approximately 9-10 gallons of water when fully filled. This volume may vary slightly depending on the hose's diameter and design. Generally, the larger the diameter, the more water it can hold.
Using a standard garden hose, it can take days to fill a 25,000 gallon pool. You might contact a company that fills pools for a fee so that you need not wait as long, and to prevent the additional cost on your water bill. Observationally, once the liner is punctured, it takes only a matter of minutes to empty one.
You can run water uphill with a garden hose by decreasing the size of the hose as it moves away from the water source. By decreasing the hose size, pressure in the hose increases and the water will travel uphill.
That's going to depend on the length and diameter of the hose, the material the hose is made of, the type of nozzle at the output end, the water pressure at the source, and how far open the valve is at the source. You haven't told us any of those details. If every hose put out the same amount of water in 24 hours, then the same hose you use to water the tomatoes and daisies could be used to fight a fire in a burning paper warehouse.
