FAQs

What is the maximum working pressure for this hose?

What is the burst pressure of the hose?

The hose has a burst pressure of 9 bar.

Can this hose be used for drinking water?

The product description does not specify if the hose is food-grade. It is generally recommended for irrigation and general water transport rather than potable water.

How do I connect the hose to my equipment?

The hose comes with two hose clamps. You will need to attach the hose to your water source or pump and your desired outlet using these clamps, ensuring a tight seal.

What materials is the hose made from?

The hose is constructed from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyester.

Is the hose resistant to UV exposure?

While the materials offer some durability, it is best to store the hose away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan and prevent degradation.

What is the weight of the hose?

The product information does not specify the exact weight, but being a 100m flat hose, it is designed for portability when coiled.

Troubleshooting

Hose not delivering water

Check that the water source is on, the pump is functioning, and there are no kinks or blockages in the hose. Ensure connections are secure.

Low water pressure or flow

Verify that the working pressure does not exceed 3 bar. Check for any leaks at the connections or damage to the hose that might restrict flow.

Hose appears to be weakening or bulging

Immediately stop water flow. The working pressure may be too high, or the hose may have sustained damage. Inspect for punctures or wear. Do not exceed the 3 bar working pressure limit.

Difficulty rolling or storing the hose

Ensure the hose is completely drained and dry before attempting to coil it. Storing it in direct sunlight or extreme cold can affect flexibility.
