I went to a local HP hose company, the guys that repair hydraulic hoses on Plant. They did a proper job on mine for £15

 
Connectors aren't so much the issue as they do not expand that much if at all with temperature changes.

It is the heater to reel hose that you need consider. If using normal garden hose it will expand and 'pop' off the connectors.

I too went to a proper hose suplier and got the restaurant grade stuff they use in industrial kitchens.

easy one that lee,use that swivel hose loq connection to the hose reel and then get one of those expensive metal hose loq ones from alex as long as your not dis-connecting them all the time they are leak free and bomb proof,buy two and use the other one as the hot wat outlet on the boiler

one top tip is to re-calibrate your pump so the switch kicks in instantly you have a dead end to stop pressure build up-it can blow cheap connectors off and flood the van,unless you have a dead end on your controller of course
