Hello All,

This question is for everyone on the forum.

How often do you replace your hose and hose reels?

All replies appreciated.

ive had the same hose reel and microbore for the last 3 1/2 yrs, showing some signs of wear 'n' tear now, but still going strong.

What hose do you have?
Mine starts to kink and twist after about a year.

Hello Jay,

Mine has started doing the same. I use mini bore hose and fittings.

Regards.

Had to chop about 5 metres off one of mine around a month ago but still going strong after 3 years. 8mm micro bore from purefreedom

I change mine when they start to spring leaks. Hose reel I can normally get new parts for so tend to repair them if possible.

Hi
There was a tip on here a few years back to turn the hose around after a few years. Its the first 50 meters or so that gets the most wear. If you swop ends around you will get better service from you whole hose length.
