Howdy All;
Tried the Pirit hose one year in Ut. (-40* temps),
worked fine till it warmed up for a few days (+40* and up),
then it melted
Since I have gone with the white hose and HT attached with
elect. tape. Wrap in 1.5" ID
foam hose and pipe insulation, tape the lengths down the seam and
a few wraps at each section where they meet. Works fin, lasts a long
time.
CUFFS054, Howdy;
They (HT manuf.), advertise that they will heat up to 3' away from the end
of the tape .... (grain of salt), ... I would (IMOP), cut and splice a too
long hose to a working length, but be aware that some of the cheaper
hoses have a super thin wall thickness and the "repair ends" won't seal.
Get the better quality hose from a blue or orange box store...
