The Swim & Fun pool backwash hose, 15 m length, is designed to carry discharged backwash water and enable drainage away from the pool area. This flexible hose connects to filter outlets, pump discharges or waste ports to direct used water to a safe drainage point during seasonal maintenance, routine cleaning or temporary emptying tasks. The product is intended for straightforward, short-term connections where a long, bendable hose is required to reach a downstream drain.
Advantages
The hose offers a combination of flexibility and length that simplifies routing around landscaping and pool equipment. Its construction resists kinking during normal use and allows for rapid connection to standard filter and pump outlets. Being lightweight and easy to coil, it is convenient to store and deploy during backwash cycles or when moving water away from the pool perimeter.
Suitable for
- Connecting pool filters to external drainage during backwash
- Temporary emptying of pools for maintenance or repairs
- Routing pump discharge to garden drains or stormwater channels
- Seasonal cleaning where extended reach from equipment to drain is required
Key specifications
- Length: 15 metres
- Application: backwash and drainage for pools
- Material characteristics: flexible, resistant to kinking under normal use
- Compatibility: suitable for connection to typical pool filter and pump outlets
- Storage: lightweight and easy to coil for compact storage
How to use
Attach one end of the hose to the filter or pump discharge outlet following the manufacturer’s connection method for the equipment in use. Route the hose to a suitable drainage location, ensuring the hose lies flat and without sharp bends that could restrict flow. Start the backwash or pump operation and monitor the hose for secure connections and proper flow. After use, drain remaining water, rinse if necessary, coil the hose neatly and store it in a dry, shaded place.
Usage recommendations
Inspect connections and the hose surface before each use for wear or damage. Avoid running the hose across sharp edges or hot surfaces and do not leave it pressurised when not in operation. For prolonged installations or permanent drainage solutions, consider using dedicated rigid piping or professional fittings appropriate for sustained flow.
