Take couple of irrigation lines out of the pool refill

[poolrabbit55]

Hi,
I have few garden beds and would like to have a T and take water after the vacuum breaker. Since I am adding a T I would also extend it to get another hose bib on other side of the bed. Question- is this ok? I have posted a pic of what I am thinking. Will there be any issue of cross contamination? Like pool water going to garden beds or other way? Help appreciated.

As long as the fill pipe at the pool end isn’t submerged it should be ok. (Or if it’s got a shutoff valve on it at the pool side it’s ok) You just don’t want pool water to be able to mix with the irrigation water.

I would Tee off the current hose bib for the second hose bib. That way it's not on the vacuum breaker side at all and it would still be copper.
