1-1/2 in x 100ft PVC Lay Flat Discharge Hose with Camlock Type

In this review of the 1-1/2 in x 100ft PVC lay flat discharge hose, the bottom line is practical durability for pool and pump work: it is aimed at homeowners and contractors who need a long, reinforced hose that connects quickly to standard pumps. The reviewer found the hose's single biggest selling point to be its combination of a 100 ft length and included camlock fittings, which let users link and unhook pumps and filters fast without tools. Expect a robust PVC build and reasonable resistance to wear in typical outdoor conditions.

Key Features

• Reinforced PVC construction: The hose body uses PVC with high tensile polyester yarn reinforcement to deliver strong, abrasion resistant performance during heavy use.
• Complete camlock fittings: Comes with 1-1/2 in female Type C and 1-1/2 in male Type E camlock fittings installed on both ends for quick connect and disconnect.
• Type A adapter included: The extra Type A male adapter allows direct screwing to pump outlets so the discharge assembly can be connected or removed rapidly.
• Long reach: At 100 ft the hose is long enough for most pool backwash, drain and transfer jobs without needing extensions.
• Working pressure and temperature range: Rated for 90 PSI working pressure and operates from 23F to 149F, suitable for seasonal outdoor use.

Who It's For

This hose is a strong match for homeowners who backwash pool filters, drain pools, or move water with a sump or trash pump and who want a ready-to-use assembly that reduces setup time. Small contractors and maintenance crews who need a lightweight, flat lay hose to store compactly between jobs will also appreciate the 100 ft length and camlock convenience.

Those who require extremely high pressure service, specialized chemical transfer beyond ordinary pool and sewage use, or custom fitting sizes should look elsewhere; this assembly is optimized for typical pool, sump and drain applications, not high temperature steam or industrial chemical service.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Durable double-sided coated PVC with fiber reinforcement resists abrasion and aging for repeated use.
• Included Type A adapter plus C and E camlocks make connections fast and broadly compatible with pump outlets.
• 100 ft length provides excellent reach for pool backwash and drainage without extra joins.

Cons

• Some users report mixed compatibility and occasional leaks, so check fittings and clamps on first use to ensure a watertight seal.
