Pool Central Swimming Pool Filter Backwash Hose

This hose has a 1.5-inch diameter, which is the industry standard for most residential pool filter backwash ports. It is designed to slide over the outlet and be secured with a hose clamp, though you should verify your specific filter's outlet size before purchasing.

While the hose is constructed from weather-resistant plastic, it is designed for temporary use during backwashing rather than permanent installation. To maximize its lifespan and prevent sun damage, we recommend rolling it up and storing it in a shaded area after each use.

The hose features a flexible, lay-flat design that allows it to be rolled up tightly. This makes it easy to store in a shed, garage, or pool box without taking up significant space.

No, this product includes only the hose itself. You will need to use your existing hose clamp or purchase a new one separately to ensure a secure, leak-free connection to your filter's backwash port.

This hose is specifically engineered for low-pressure water discharge, such as backwashing a pool filter or draining a pool. It is not designed to handle high-pressure water flow or to be used as a permanent plumbing line.
