What Type Of Hose Is This ???

[SRI Cleaning]

He'll figure it out.

Why do people run solution hoses without shut-off valves on each section?

When I was using the Bane I didn't have shut offs. Didn't need them. Now that I look at those hoses they look like low pressure hoses as well. 3/8s maybe. Could be old bane hose. Don't know what the high temp quick connect would be for on it though?

I think you should have at least 100' of hose coming out of your truck first anyway. Most houses I do, I don't need more. Commercial is another story.

The less connections the better really.

and lets not forget, where ever there is a connection... that's where it is gonna pop when it pops...notice I say "when it pops" not "if".

The less connections IN THE HOUSE the better also. No one likes to clean up a flood damage job that they created. Not much pay in that.

Lester .. your profile states 5yrs in the trade .. you've never seen this hose before?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Shut off valves on each and every hose section facilitate changing tools, adding or removing hoses, and quickly cutting off flow in case of a leak. Try it, you'll never go without.

Thanks,

Would it be possible for the grey hose to take away from my water temp... When I have it connected to the wand it seems as if the water isnt getting hot...

But when I run the water through the aux. line the water is hot and I mean HOT...

Yes.
and depending how long of a hose run, a double Yes.

btw: what are you judging by. the wand's spray jets, a spare quick connect inserted into the line for open flow?

 

[lesterj2]

i have a blue solution line running from the reel with the grey one connected to it... And when I spray through my wand the water isnt hot like the water coming through the aux line... Or the water coming straight from the machine into a bucket...

 

[SRI Cleaning]

let the water flow for a while. The hose is probably cooling it.

 

[Brian R]

The longer the hose...the cooler the water gets by the time it gets to the end.

Lester those hoses look pretty ancient. I have a couple the same and only use them with a porty, I don't trust them under heat or pressure.

 

[lesterj2]

anybody know a good spot for some 100' Solution Hose...

 

[Able 1]

I think Greenie might have some, all I can find around here is 50' sections.

[Mike Draper]

***notice I say "when it pops" not "if"****
