Enter the hose thread adapter. It’s a tiny, cheap hero. One end screws onto your hose like a champ, the other glues into your PVC world.
You can find these at any hardware store. They cost less than a fancy coffee. Grab a few sizes—trust me, you’ll want spares.
Here’s the weird part: garden hoses use a different thread pitch than PVC fittings. It’s called GHT (Garden Hose Thread). PVC uses NPT (National Pipe Thread). They are not the same. Don’t force them—you’ll strip the threads and cry.
