Product Information
Full details
This Gardena Lay Flat Hose Kit is designed for users of submersible water pumps, offering a convenient and durable solution for water transfer. Its key benefit is its space-saving flat design when not in use and robust construction for long-term reliability. A potential caveat is its specific application with water pumps, meaning it may not be suitable for standard garden watering applications requiring higher flexibility or different fittings. The kit includes a 10-meter, 38mm reinforced PVC hose and a reusable hose clip, featuring weather and UV resistance, and a 12-year warranty.

Troubleshooting
Hose not fully inflating
Ensure the water pump is operating at sufficient pressure. Check for kinks or blockages in the hose and at the pump outlet. Verify the hose clip is not over-tightened, restricting flow.
Leak at the pump connection
Ensure the hose is correctly seated on the pump outlet. Tighten the hose clip securely. Check the pump outlet and hose connection for any debris or damage.
Reduced water flow
Inspect the entire length of the hose for kinks or obstructions. Check the pump intake for blockages. Ensure the drainage point is not restricted.
Hose showing signs of wear
While durable, inspect for cuts or punctures. Minor abrasions are normal, but significant damage may require hose replacement. Use the provided hose clip for secure connections to minimize stress.
