What's the best pole hose for hot? I've used different stuff but they always seems to go really flexible and then turn rubberised sticking to itself and the supply hose.

Have you tried the aqua-dapter hose yet, i find that pretty good.

I use ‘Lite 5’ PVC from Pure Freedom as my pole hose. It's re-inforced & braided so does not stick or get too rubbery.
From van to pole I use 1/2inch claber hose. A bit heavy but works well with hot water.

Thanks for the replies guys. I read up on the aqua adapter hose and that looks like the way to go, mainly because it's made from a different material to the rest. Be interested if anyone has used both the lite 5 hose and the aqua adapter.

I've got the aqua adapter hose and it looks good, fitted it to 2 poles and I can see it working very well with hot. There is no stretch in it at all. I'm gonna try it on some commercial work tomorrow.

Had the aqua adapter pole hose on for a while now and gotta say I'm pretty impressed.  It doesn't change it's characteristics whatever the temperature, it doesn't stretch at all.  It likes to remain as straight as possible, it is maybe a little too stiff, but this means it less likely to get tangled, however when it does get tangled it gets tangled good and proper.

If you've been hunting around for good hot pole hose this is well worth a look.
