Flat water hose - any good? (1 Viewer)

water hose

Hi, we have a flat hose, never use it now, as said you have to roll the whole
lot out before use, emptying whilst rolling up though isn`t a problem.

After a couple of years we decided the best way forward was an aqua-roll, I fitted a 12v outlet socket in the outside locker made up a whale inline suction pump and drop it in the aqua-roll and let it transfer the water into our tank, easy peasy.:thumb:

We use a similar system when not on a site with a tape close by.. Though it is not an aquaroll we use but a weird suitcase on wheels looking water carrier

After my previous comments on the spiral hose......

Just had the new one delivered and it weighs about 4 times as much as my previous one. It is like an out of control snake........

So I guess the fight with spiral hoses depends on which one you get.
I won't buy these off ebay anymore. will only buy from where I can feel the weight oh:

We have used one on a cassette regularly since 2006. We have had no problems with it at all. You can move away from a Bourne and still fill up so you are not blocking it for other users.

We also undo both ends and it gets squeezed as it is wound onto the cassette.

Bought one 6 months ago and never used it,as you have to unroll all 15m to use it, so keep a short hose about 4m to fill up at motorhome service point. for interim fills without moving the van , a container & whale pump:thumb:

Why not have cut it to the length that was easier to useoh:
Used a flat hose for 6yrs with no problems. Find it cheaper to buy it from the roll, from a dealer, and fit myown fittings. Hope this helps.
