I Think I've Found The Best Ever Pole Hose!

WCF

Help Support WCF:

It doesn't curl up like a pigs tail, in fact it lies flat on the ground, I was astonished, you can kink it to stop the flow, it's shiny so doesn't snag in the pole and it's a sexy blue colour.

Are you still using the blue hose now and how r u finding it with this cold weather we having now?

I been using Slx 35 for a week and the yellow pole hose is already twisted and becoming a nightmare, I keep tripping up when it get tangle round my ankle.

The link u put up don't work, is it this one below.

Tuffers, looking at your pictures I can see the blue hose connected to the brush, I got a short orange hose connected to the brush head to the yellow hose... Any reason why you removed the orange hose?

 
Just checking :whistle:

I don't want to order the blue hose then find I need to order something else like different connected or like that.

It seem straight forward of just swapping the hose over.

 
It seem I will need to order 100 metre hose which is £90 because 30 metre will be too short for the slx35.

Think I will give it a miss and get used to the yellow hose

I think you're getting Metres and feet mixed up? 30m is 98ft - more than enough for your SLX 35!! :thumbsup:

Slx 35 is 35 ft

30m of hose is 99 foot

Plenty

You will only lose 10.6m in the pole fully extended leaving another 60 ish foot of hose..i assume you will be connecting it to your existing reel hose

I use 60m of reel hose and can do most big houses without taking the trolley out of my car

I got the exactly same trolley like adams0211, you can the picture below in my van.

Just want to replace the pole hose, 20 meter is more than enough.

I love it! I did have it connected to a 6mm EZ-Snap barbed connector, I found that the blue hose would sometimes fold over and stop the flow at that joint, I also put a pin hole half way up the hose due to the fact that I kink the hose to stop flow (can't see the point of this univalve :rolleyes:). It lasted about a month before I bought some more, I've now got a short length of Gardiners orange PU hose connected to the EZ-Snap, then a straight JG, then the blue hose up the pole. It does not curl up like a pigs tail like all the other pole hose I've used. The hose is 4.5mm ID IIRC, so you will need a cup of very hot water to dunk it in to soften it up so you can slide it over barbed connectors, you will also need barbed inserts because it's soft and will pop out of JG connectors.

Buy some :thumbsup:
