I thought that a general thread on the subject of water hoses alone would be helpful. Couldn’t find anything when I looked.
Sharing tips and tricks people use to make using their hose easier etc.
For me I station my hose in the middle of my watering area to make it easier to not have to drag a hose around. But my problem primarily is the hose itself. They never last long. I’m aware that my main problem is water pressure in the hose because I usually only turn it off at the watering wand around this time through summer to make spot watering easier. So I am looking for a hose that can hold the water pressure in the line without destroying the hose. The last one was a flex rite heavy duty hose that stated 400 psi bursting pressure. It basically swelled up and stretched so much once it is off it contracts and then works horribly.
The stainless steel hoses look nice due to their resistance to kinking. There are a variety available.
I’m curious if anyone knows of a good watering hose that would last in my situation?
Also would be cool to hear generally other situations and stories. Also water hoses that work and don’t work well.
