Hose reel Tail Length
« on: Yesterday at 01:26:29 pm »
Hi all, I have decided to run with the hotwater hose that came with the reel. Looking for any thoughts on length of 8mm PU hose that we attach to the heavy hotwater hose. The biggest wfp I run with is 47 feet so thinking about 60 feet because I run hoseless. All thoughts welcome.

We have 100 meters of microbore and 25 meters of green pu hose joined together on each reel and finds this works well .

Only you can answer this question as you know your round and parking issues.

There is only one customer we have now that we have to use the full 100 meters of hose on. For this reason, I wouldn't run anything less than 100 meters on my hose reels because of this one customer. Otherwise, I could get away with 60 meters.

Years back we had a council office block and children's day care centre which had a large ground footprint. We needed the full 100 meters to clean that property every 4 weeks. In fact, I had considered ordering a length of 150m of hose as that would have made that job so much easier. But I stuck with that job for 11 years before the council decided they could save money by employing their own window cleaning team they set up.
