I'm constantly getting questions regarding which hose to use for the booster pumps. I typically use the Goodyear Plivoic, but this new batch I picked up yesterday looks like it may be a different brand (Maybe Continental?). I took photos of the hose which has the PSI and specifications printed on it. All my fittings are just regular Garden hose fittings which I have hydraulically pressed on. About 2 times per year I cut the ends off, and have new ends pressed on. I have some of this hose that is three years old and still working great. Typically when ruptures happen its in and area that has been damaged, drug over a sharp concrete wall, etc. .
Also, if you're in an emergency situation, a hose mender with clumps will work fine to repair this type of hose. I just hate them and have them removed/repaired as soon as possible.
i need a different color hose. this would be perfect. the hose that came on my pump setup from the powerwash store, is what i ordered when i set up my booster for rinsing. only thing that drives me crazy about it is that they are the same color (red). so when the application hose is drug around a bit, and then the rinse hose is pulled through the yard. it becomes a tangled mess. if i had two different colors, ( blue and red would be nice) it would be easier to stay on top[ of the crossing of the hoses as it occurs rather than a big mess in the end...
