PVC HOSE 1-1/2ft x 100ft - Heavy Duty Pool Backwash Hose

In this review of the PVC HOSE 1-1/2' x 100ft the reviewer finds it most useful for pool owners and anyone needing a long, lay flat discharge hose. The single biggest reason to consider it is straightforward: it pairs a full 100 ft length with heavy duty reinforced PVC construction so it handles routine pool backwash, filter cleaning, and drainage tasks without constantly replacing short or flimsy hoses. This review reflects real user feedback on durability and material thickness so buyers know what to expect before use.

Key Features

• Size and length: A full 1-1/2' diameter and 100 ft length provide long reach for draining pools and reaching distant discharge points without extra couplings.
• Heavy duty construction: Reinforced blue PVC resists abrasion, chemicals, weathering, and general wear for demanding outdoor use.
• Lay flat design: The hose lays flat when pressurized for easy routing and folds compactly for storage when not in use.
• Versatile connections: Includes a connector for simple pump attachment, making it suitable for pool pumps, sump pumps, and trash pump discharge.
• Resistant material: PVC material is corrosion and abrasion resistant, which helps when running chlorinated or dirty water during backwash cycles.

Who It's For

This hose is aimed at homeowners with above ground or in-ground pools, property owners who need a reliable long discharge hose for seasonal draining, and DIYers who handle filter backwashing and pump-driven water removal. Its 100 ft length fits jobs where reaching a distant drain or downhill discharge point is necessary.

People who need a very heavy industrial duty hose for continuous commercial pumping or those who require thicker, reinforced rubber for high-abrasion mining and construction uses should look elsewhere. Also, buyers who demand uniform thickness in every unit should be aware that material thickness feedback is mixed among users.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Full 100 ft length and 1-1/2' diameter cover most residential pool and pump discharge needs.
• Reinforced PVC construction offers good resistance to chemicals and weather for outdoor use.
• Includes connector clamps for easier pump hookup and compact storage when not in use.
• Lay flat design simplifies routing and reduces tripping hazards compared with round hoses.

Cons

• Some customers report variable material thickness and isolated pin hole or split issues, so quality control appears mixed at times.
• Not meant for continuous heavy industrial use where rubber or metal-reinforced hoses are preferred.
