     Hi Kim, I have a pressure regulator on my soaker hoses. Mine came with 
     the original soaker hose kit I bought, but I've seen them for sale 
     separately. Mine is just a threaded unit that goes between the water 
     faucet and the beginning of the soaker hose line. I have a little 
     leakage at the junction before the regulator, but not so much that I 
     feel I'm wasting water. The plastic fittings just don't fit as tight 
     as metal. But it works. HTH
