Shaun, just cut a 50 in half. Makes life much easier. Not only that its easier for the machine too. Other than that at least in the states you can get anything up to a 100 feet hoses. Dont see why it would be any different in the U.K. Solution hoses are obviously different as you can get them just about any length you want. Up to 300 feet but not many people use or need them at that length, best, Dave.
