Each lay flat hose complies to AS4020, the highest standard for drinking water safety. They feature a polyester outer layer, a polyurethane lining, and brass fittings. They’ re also taste-fee and antimicrobial. To unspool, just connect the hose to the tap, walk away while holding the reel, and remove the other end of the hose. As you wind it back on, any water left inside the hose will be pushed out.
Flat Out’ s sullage hoses are part of the overall picture as well. Imagine that black, ribbed sullage hose in your van’ s boot right now. It’ s probably a tangled mess. Mine was. Further, those ribs are pretty good at collecting organic material that’ s been washed down the sink, leading to smells and other nasties.
The Flat Out Sullage Hose is also a‘ lay flat’ design made from a high quality elastomer( a polymer with high elasticity). The flexible, smooth finish inhibits organic particles from collecting, and as you wind it onto the Multi-Reel, excess water will be forced out. End caps are provided, too, meaning no leakage or smells. According to Flat Out, the lack of oxygen inside the sullage hose when stored will result in microbes‘ going to sleep’ rather than reproducing.
A 2.5m extension for the drinking water hose is available.
