Backwash hose ideas??

[brittmer]

I use PVC buried just under the ground but the end sticks out on a hillside. The only problem with this is that the water creates a hole in the ground where it shoots out the end of the pipe.
I would like to put a pop-up head on the end like a sprinkler system uses but not sure if there will be too much pressure.

I would think PVC would be a cheaper alternative to buying a long vacuum hose. (Not including your time and labor to bury it).

I attached a union joint to my waste line, ran PVC under ground, then ran 50' of 4" corrugated drainage pipe to my fence. There I buried a bucket with drainage rock to help dissipate the flow and prevent a huge puddle. Of course, I did all this before the landscaping went in and my builder provided most of the materials for free

Anyway, its virtually invisible now and the plumbing at the pump looks very neat. You can't tell when I backflush unless you know where to look.
