Hi all,

I've recentley had two high pressure truck mount solution hoses split on me.

 Been looking around for the best place to buy replacement parts such as these and Woodbridge Commercial seem to be the most reasonable (£89 for a 50ft length).

Anyone know of any other suppliers that are worth looking at?


Cheers

Jon

Hi mate i run a Alltec twin pro portable with a 135psi pump
have been using  Draper air line hoses with BSP thread for years no problems
check out there prices.
also check out psi ratings whether they can handle psi from your truckmount
just sharing a bit of knowledge hope this is helpful to others

Have you tried your local Pirtek supplier?
pirtek.co.uk for your local branch.

When purchasing new solution hoses for your truckmount it is advisable that you purchase hose that will have a 3000psi rating & can cope with water temp of 250 degrees or more.  Anything less than this then you are risking the safety of yourself & your customers not to mention damage to property from hot water.  Most companies that supply to the carpet cleaning trade use Goodyear Neptune that has the rating as i have suggested.  In addition to this the Good Year hose is made from a non marking material.  Some years ago we purchased some solution hose from Pirtek and it was leaving black marks on customers carpets so this is something that you need to make sure of when purchasing from companies that dont sell dedicated hoses to the carpet cleaning trade.
