In the last piece, we learned some factors to consider to choose a good pressure washer hose. While this time let’s learn some other tips.
Temp Range
Check the temp range that the PVC hose can handle. Some hoses are for cold water only. While others are suitable for hot water use. If you plan to use hot water in your pressure washer, choose a hose that can handle high temp.
Flexible
In general, PVC hose is flexible. While a flexible hose will be easier to handle. Besides, a flexible hose will has smaller bend radius. Thus it is hard to kink and twist. Then you can use it in a narrow space. So choose the hose which is flexible with a small bend radius.
Wear proof
Look for the hose that has good wear resistance. Because Pressure washer hose is often subjected to rough surface. Besides, you will remove it frequently. Thus you have to choose a durable hose. While the hose with outer cover and reinforce will be better.
UV proof
If you plan to use the hose outdoors, select a PVC hose which can resist UV. Because exposure to sunlight will make the hose become brittle and soft. Thus the hose must be UV proof.
