50' 1.5" vac hose and solution line

[Clean-n-mean]

Hi guys,
Any suggestions where to buy? Any one brand better then the other? I am buying asap. I will need fittings as well with both! Never again will I burn up that much time fighting with a 25' hose and my porty in a hall!!!! Total waste! From now on my porty stays down stairs whenever possible!


Thanks!

If you want to run 50' and already have 25'. Ide suggest getting 25' and putting them together by flashcuff. Makes it easier when you get closer to the machine. Just disconnect and keep going without the hose mounding up between you and the machine.

Great point there! I did not even think about that. Hmmm, wondering what to do now! Will my machine do 75 feet?? I got twin triple stage vacs...

What machine do you have? I did run 75 with dual three stage no problem. But I used 2". 1.5" kills your cfm.

Edic Galaxy with amtek 3 stage twin vacs and adjustable to 500 psi pump w/ 2000 watt heat. I'm happy with the machine so far. Just think I could get a little better dry times with a better wand. Thanks!

I wouldn't go further then 50' with 1.5" hose. It will definitely save your back from moving machine. I remember using 25' hose that sucks. It doesn't quite reach end of upstairs hall so you have to bring it all up stairs. Then back down again. 50' will reach most of what you'll come across. If you find your leaving carpet wetter then normal. You can try sizing down your jets. You'll still have the pressure. But your flow will be less. It will balance it out for lower vacuum. If your running 6 flow. jet it for 4. If 4 jet it for 3. 4 flow should be fine though. It's what I used then.

I would suggest 2" hose barb modification. But that machine is a tight fit. Nomad did a video on it here. Same machine.

Their hoses are supposed to be more flexible than what Jon Don has. I just ordered some.

Wow! Big difference! You said in another post someone makes a lid I can buy for my machine with a 2 inch Barb so I don't have to drill out my machine?? Steam-bright.com??

I hope they're good hoses. Mine go only $94 per 50' run.

My solution line (Goodyear) runs $44 for 50' when bought with vacuum hose. By itself, about $89.

They used to. But that was for the port lids like sandia and ninja warrior.

I'm gonna buy a spare lid from edic and make my own. No problem. I can use either 1.5 or 2 then

Keep the original lid unchanged, if you have a problem, throw it on.
