How to use

To use the Flo 89232 hose mender, first cut the damaged section of the hose cleanly to ensure a flat edge. Insert the mender into the open ends of the hose segments. Ensure the hose is pushed firmly over the barbs of the connector to create a secure, watertight seal. Once installed, turn on the water supply gradually to check for any leaks at the connection point.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your garden hose has a 3/4-inch diameter
• Ensure the hose material is compatible with standard plastic push-fit connectors
• Check if the hose damage is located in a straight section for the best fit

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to prevent leaks, ensure the hose ends are cut straight and are free of debris before inserting the connector. If the hose is stiff due to cold temperatures, soaking the ends in warm water can make installation easier.
