Properly maintain PVC layflat hose is essential to ensure it can last long time and perform well. Here are some tips to maintain PVC layflat hose.
Inspect
Regularly inspect the water discharge hose and find out if there was any wear or damage. For example, crack. Once there was any problem, replace the hose at once.
Clean
Clean the hose after each use to prevent the buildup of dirt or debris. While for such work, you’d better use a soft brush and mild soap solution. Then, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Store
Store the hose in a dry and cool place away from direct sunlight and other heat sources. Besides, avoid storing the hose in the areas with high humidity. Because this can cause the hose to degrade over time.
Kink and twist
Never kink or twist the hose during use. Because this can cause damage to the hose and affect its property.
Pressure rating
Do not exceed the pressure rating of the hose during use. Because this will cause the hose to rupture or burst.
Fittings
Check the fittings regularly to see if it was loose or fail. Then change the new ones if necessary.
Replacement
Replace the hose if in need. But remember to follow the instruction and operation specs.
