Brilliant worth buying in bulk maybe just to have a few rigs set up ready to go. With all this pu hose could you instead of putting in boiling water put it under flame on the point its kinking then stretch it once warm
I do this I tend to trap in the back door and then pull tight and shake and you can see it straightening out.only last a short while though
to be honest I don`t have a clue mate.
How long have you been using the orange hose?
Now I have it around five years full time used every day. Cars run over it, it was frozen couple of times every winter...
how does this work with a uni valve pal ? im struggling atm every pole hose I try its to stretchy and the valve wont work properly , so frustrating at moment.
Are you making sure the hose can't pull through the gooseneck? You need some form of hose stop where the hose comes out of the gooseneck at the brush end or when you pull the hose you will just be pulling on the brush jets.
The green pu is fine with a uni valve very little stretch
yes iv got an o ring above the goose kneck as a stop , the pole hose im using seems to stretchy thats why the uni valve isn't working very well , just need guidance on a hose that doesn't stretch or kink on my cold water system?
We don’t use uni valves I tried one and it broke after 6-7 months so never bothered replacing it , also with 27-30 poles it would cost a lot not that I couldn’t afford them but never felt they were worth the money ,also something else to go wrong, we just squeeze the hose and stick it in the end of the pole
Aye, suppose I wouldn't like to see a bill for that much of them. The people who work for you don't give a **** either tbh. They don't go out there way to break stuff but there no as carefully as you'd like either. Would be unrealistic to expect anything else though. In other jobs that I've had if something broke then it broke, it wasn't my place to worry about replacing it.
I'm using Gardiners green PU and that's fine. You haven't put the pole hose too close to the univalve have you? Can't remember but there is a diagram somewhere that shows you need a gap between the pole hose and where the univalve widens if you get my drift?
Do you have the new Ultraflex hose on your reel also?
Do you mean the new Gardiner yellow pole hose ?.
Yes been using it for well over a year works well with hot and cold , I personally prefer the green pu but that’s just personal preference I prefer a stiffer pole hose
