Does anybody know where I can buy hoses suitable for a power flush machine. The one I hire has quite short hoses and some longer ones.
 
A power flush hose shop ? Sorry kidding I went to a place that does garage / dental equipment as they use them on there compressors
 
The other year we asked Kamco to make up some 10m hoses for us as I like the machine to be outside the property - just in case- they were happy to do this & when I explained my reasoning they thought it was a good idea and would possibly add the option to their list.
Their hoses were a larger bore.

you can buy the hose on ebay just search for reinforced clear hose i want to extend mine as well but i cant find the unions i want basicly they are the heavy version of a garden tap hose connector i want the ones with the lug either side any one know where i can get or even the proper name for them
 
kamco will make up any hose length you want with the connectors you want. I would be cheaper tho to buy the ends from them or other and make them yourself with hose from ebay.
 
a decent plumbers merchant will get all you need if you ask em
 
The hose unions on the Kamco machine are fine however I also have a Fernox machine & I purchased some camlock fittings which seem more secure & do not leak. If you put Camlock into flea bay you will see these items.

I also hate having the flushing machine inside. 30 metres of 3/4 i.d. hose can be had for less than £40 on ebay, at that price it seems daft not to.
 
Wherever you end up sourcing it check what temp it can withstand particularly if you are going to hot flush I have seen cheap hose distend and balloon at 50º.
