Product Information

Full details

The Kent & Stowe Extraordinary Hose Pipe 30m is designed for gardeners seeking a reliable and durable watering solution. Its key benefit is consistent, kink-free water flow thanks to advanced knitted helix technology, ensuring ease of use. A potential caveat is its 12.5mm diameter, which might be less suitable for high-volume water delivery needs compared to wider hoses. This 30-meter hose is lightweight, flexible, and built for year-round garden use with frost resistance down to -30°C.

FAQs

What is the diameter of this hose pipe?

The diameter of the Kent & Stowe Extraordinary Hose Pipe is 12.5mm.

How does the anti-kink technology work?

The hose features advanced knitted helix technology which is designed to reinforce the hose structure, preventing it from kinking and collapsing under pressure.

Can this hose be used in winter?

Yes, the hose is frost-resistant down to -30°C, making it suitable for year-round garden use. However, for best performance and longevity, it is recommended to store it in a frost-free location during extreme cold.

What is the maximum water pressure this hose can handle?

The product information does not specify a maximum water pressure. It is designed for standard domestic garden use.

How should I store the hose to maximize its lifespan?

Coil the hose loosely, avoid sharp bends, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. In winter, store in a frost-free area.

Is this hose suitable for connecting to a hose reel?

While the hose is flexible and lightweight, its suitability for a specific hose reel depends on the reel's design and dimensions. It is generally compatible with most standard hose reel systems.

Troubleshooting

Hose is not delivering water

Ensure the tap is fully turned on. Check that the connector is securely attached to the tap and the accessory is properly connected to the hose end. Inspect the hose for any visible leaks or blockages.

Water flow is weak

Verify the tap is fully open. Check for kinks or severe bends in the hose. Ensure there are no blockages in the hose or the connected accessory. If the problem persists, check water pressure at the source.

Hose appears stiff in cold weather

This is normal for some materials in extreme cold. Gently warm the hose section if possible, or allow it to sit at room temperature for a while before attempting to use or coil it. Ensure it is stored in a frost-free area when not in use.

Cons

Compatibility: This hose is designed to fit standard garden tap connectors and watering accessories with a 12.5mm hose diameter.

Care:

  • After use, drain the hose as much as possible to prevent freezing in cold weather.
