2" hose
« on: November 03, 2005, 07:56:54 am »
to make it easier to handle my wand around beds etc i want to put about 1 metre of 1.5" hose on the wand end of my 2" truckmount hose. does anybody else do this and do you think it would drastically reduce lift?

Try using 50 foot of Bane-clean 2 inch hose, it is very supple this is what I use as the lead hose.

it will give you greater lift,but reduce cfm.most tm users use a 10ft whip line.

thanks for the replies, just one more thing, what happens if you get a 2" wand that people are talking about, is it ok to still use the 'whip line'

You can use a 1.5 inch whip hose but you will be reducing the performance of the wand. Better to look for a more flexible length of 2 inch hose.
