Washing machine hose for fogwash?
« on: November 17, 2011, 04:20:40 pm »
I have tried the red washing machine hose as hose lock conectors kept leaking . The trouble i had is connecting it to the hose reel . When the hose reel goes round the washing machine hose knots up . What do other fog wash user use from the hot out?

Have you got a brass elbow on your reel?

yes i have the brass swivel male conector. And a pure freedom hose reel the blue one with the plastic shaft . i havent be able to work today as the thread has complety gone on the shaft . i dont know if its becasue of the heat or were its may have been over tightened.

I use car radiator hose - very tough but a little fat for the hoselocks.

Brass elbow connector and brass hozelock fittings. Alex at Gardiners can get hold of a hoselock type fitting with a barbed connector so you can get fatter hose to fit quite easily provided the inside diameter is close.
