Hose Connection PointsHose Connection Points

A Hose Connection marks an outdoor hose outlet in the water plan. It records location and fixture appearance; it does not operate or schedule a real outlet.

1

Place the object

Open the Water Add panel and expand Manual Access. Choose Hose Connection, then click its position on the plan. The tool guide also provides Name and Position entry. Press Esc to stop placement.

2

Edit its properties

Under Fixture Style, choose Inline Valve, Anti-Siphon or Ball Valve. Use the separate Water Source object when you need to document the upstream supply type.

3

Position and identify it

Use General → Name to identify the object and Location for its position. Length fields follow metric or imperial project settings. Locked objects cannot be edited until unlocked. Changes use drawing history.

4

Document the route

Draw the appropriate irrigation or drainage pipe route to show the intended arrangement. A nearby symbol alone is not proof of a working connection or a hydraulic calculation. The water tools document a schematic plan; they do not simulate real pressure or flow.
