Product Information

Full details

This Einhell 4-meter suction hose is designed for garden pumps and household water supply systems, offering a durable and reliable connection. Its key benefit is the robust brass foot valve and threaded nipple, ensuring a secure and long-lasting seal. A potential caveat is its specific 1" (33.25 mm) connection size, requiring compatibility with your pump or system. The hose is transparent, allowing visual inspection of water flow and potential blockages.

FAQs

What is the thread size of the nipple?

The threaded nipple is 33.25 mm (1 inch) male thread.

Can I use this hose with any water pump?

This hose is compatible with garden pumps and household water supply systems that have a 33.25 mm (1 inch) intake connection. Always check your pump's specifications.

Does the hose come with a filter?

The hose features a brass foot valve, which acts as a strainer to prevent larger debris from entering the pump, but it is not a fine filter.

What is the maximum temperature this hose can handle?

While specific temperature ratings are not provided, it is recommended to use the hose with water at typical ambient temperatures. Avoid using with very hot water, as this can damage the plastic material.

How do I clean the foot valve?

Carefully remove the foot valve from the hose end and rinse it under running water. Ensure all debris is removed and that the valve flap moves freely before reattaching.

What material is the hose made of?

The hose is made of transparent plastic, and the fittings (foot valve and nipple) are made of brass.

Troubleshooting

Pump not drawing water / losing prime

Ensure the foot valve is fully submerged and free of debris. Check all connections for air leaks. Verify the hose and pump are properly primed with water before starting.

Water flow is weak or intermittent

Inspect the hose and foot valve for blockages or kinks. Ensure the water source level is sufficient. Check for any obstructions at the foot valve intake.

Hose appears to be leaking

Tighten the threaded connection at the pump. Inspect the hose material for any cracks or damage. For minor leaks, a suitable hose repair tape might be a temporary solution, but replacement is recommended for damaged hoses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the pump's intake port and the hose's threaded nipple are clean.
  2. Screw the 33.25 mm (1") threaded nipple securely onto the pump's intake.
  3. Submerge the foot valve end of the hose into the water source, ensuring it is fully underwater and not resting in sediment.
  4. Fill the hose and pump with water to prime the system before the first use or after the hose has been disconnected.

Care:
