2 in x 100 ft Backwash Hose for Swimming Pools - Heavy Duty PVC

In this review the 2 in x 100 ft Backwash Hose for Swimming Pools is evaluated as a practical, heavy duty discharge hose for pool owners who need a reliable way to handle backwash and drainage. The bottom line: this hose is for anyone who wants a long, sturdy lay flat hose that attaches directly to pumps and filters and resists kinks and leaks. Its standout feature is the combination of a 3-layer PVC construction and metal pin lug fittings that make routine pool backwashing and temporary drainage straightforward and durable.

Key Features

• Standard size: The 2 in ID and 100 ft length provide long reach for most backyard pools and allow the user to place discharge water well away from the pool area.
• Durable construction: The three-layer PVC with a polyester yarn reinforcement keeps the hose from tearing, twisting, or collapsing under typical backwash conditions.
• High operating pressure: Rated to 90 PSI, it handles the pressure produced by common pool pumps without ballooning or splitting.
• Quality fittings: Aluminum male and female pin lug connectors with a brass swivel nut give a secure, corrosion-resistant connection to threaded pump outlets.
• Easy to install: The hose screws directly onto pump outlets and uses stainless steel punch lock clamps on both ends, so setup is quick and no special tools are required beyond tightening the clamps.
• Versatile use: While made for pool backwash, the hose also works for garden irrigation, construction drainage and other temporary discharge needs.

Who It's For

The hose is best for home pool owners with above ground or inground systems who need a long, dependable discharge line for backwashing sand or DE filters. It suits users who value durability and leak-free fittings so routine maintenance becomes less hassle.

Those who should look elsewhere include people needing a permanently buried or potable-water-rated line, or users who require an extremely flexible hose for tight, indoor routing; this lay flat PVC design is optimized for outdoor discharge and manual handling rather than concealed installations.

Pros & Cons
