Purge hose

Can anyone point me in the direction of a site that sells good quality hoses

Google just throws up diy stores or purge kit hire places

When i lost my ones i bought new but any will do theyre called butterfly clips

They come with handles on them and far easier to use and the handles come in every colour not that it matters

Not only that but gas can cavitate leaving you with layers of air, achieving the purge time means you've hit the velocity required to minimise / eliminate the probability of that occurring.

This might sound daft Scott but try a tropical fish shop. I was in one the other week and noticed they sell large bore corrugated pipe. I found myself eyeing that up instead of the fish I originally went in there for!
