Product Information

Full details

The Hozelock Maxi Plus Hose is designed for general garden use, offering durability and consistent water flow thanks to its multi-layer construction. Its primary benefit is its robustness and smooth inner layer for maximum flow. A potential consideration is its 12.5mm diameter, which might be less suitable for very high-volume irrigation needs. Key features include a 4-layer braided design, PVC construction, and eco-friendly materials.

FAQs

What is the diameter of the Hozelock Maxi Plus Hose?

The diameter of the Hozelock Maxi Plus Hose is 12.5mm (1/2 inch).

What is the warranty period for this hose?

The Hozelock Maxi Plus Hose comes with a 10-Year Guarantee.

Is this hose suitable for drinking water?

The hose is guaranteed free of heavy metals and made from materials suitable for general garden use. For potable water, always use hoses specifically certified for that purpose.

Can I leave the hose connected to the tap?

It is recommended to disconnect the hose from the tap after use and drain it to prevent pressure build-up and prolong its life.

How does the braided construction help?

The braided polyester layer prevents the hose from expanding under pressure, which maintains consistent water flow and prevents bursting. It also adds strength and flexibility.

How should I clean the hose?

Clean the exterior of the hose with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry before storing. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Low water flow

Check that the hose is fully connected to the tap and accessory, ensure there are no kinks in the hose, and verify that the tap is fully open. Also, check for blockages within the hose or connected accessories.

Hose is stiff and difficult to maneuver

Allow the hose to warm up in sunlight for a short period, as this can make it more flexible. Ensure it is not frozen. Store properly when not in use.

Leaking at the connection point

Ensure the connector is securely fastened. Check the washer inside the Hozelock connector for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
