Variables,..hose size, water source etc,....If I had to run 1000 ft. of supply hose,..and depending on how much water I was gonna need,.. I'd most likely hire a fire truck or water truck for the job. Remember,..this is the customers problem not yours,...the cost of doing this work id on them,.not you.

* I used to be nice to people with log cabins and huge decks,..but they didn't have water,..and I'd help them out by hauling water and not charging what it was worth,..NEVER again,...they can either have it done or not,...it was their choice to have high maintenance building materials. Sucks running after water.

I run up up to 500 feet of 1/2 inch on a regular basis with no noticeable drop on pressure.

 We even stipulate in all our quote that the customer provides the water.
