Grey suction hoses are general-purpose PVC hoses designed for low-pressure applications where suction is required. They feature a PVC inner tube, a single-ply reinforcement layer (may be textile or plastic), and a PVC outer cover for protection. Common applications include:
Pool and spa maintenance: Transferring and removing pool or spa water.
Aquarium and pond maintenance: Removing water for cleaning or maintenance purposes.
Light-duty sump pump applications: Transferring water from sump pumps in basements or crawlspaces.
Liquid transfer applications (low pressure): Can be used for low-pressure transfer of various liquids.
Benefits
- Suitable for low-pressure suction: Designed for applications requiring liquid removal.
- Flexible construction: Easy to route and maneuver for cleaning or maintenance tasks.
- Durable PVC construction: Offers good resistance to abrasion and weather (depending on specific hose formulation).
- Leak-proof performance: Reliable for efficient low-pressure liquid transfer.
