Product Information
Full details
This Loops Solid Wall Suction Hose is designed for users of the ys11768 Surface Water Pump, providing a reliable solution for the intake side of water transfer operations. Its primary benefit is its robust construction, ensuring consistent performance in demanding conditions. A potential consideration is its specific application for suction lines, meaning it's not intended for pressure output. Key features include a durable solid wall design, a 7-meter length, and a 25mm inner diameter, making it suitable for efficient water intake.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this hose?
This hose is designed exclusively for the suction side of water pumps, meaning it draws water into the pump.
Can I use this hose on the discharge side of the pump?
No, this hose is not designed for the pressure output (discharge) side of a water pump. Using it in this way could lead to damage or failure.
What size water pump is this hose compatible with?
It is suitable for Loops Surface Mounting Water Pump models, specifically designed for the ys11768 model, and features a 25mm inner diameter for efficient intake.
How should I clean the hose?
Rinse the inside of the hose with clean water after each use to remove any debris. Allow it to dry before storing.
What is the maximum temperature this hose can handle?
Specific temperature limits are not provided, but it is designed for typical water transfer applications and should be stored away from extreme heat.
Can this hose be used for submersible pumps?
This hose is intended for surface pumps and their suction side. It is not designed for use with submersible pumps.
Does the hose come with fittings?
The product description does not specify if fittings are included. Ensure you have the necessary fittings for your pump connection.
Troubleshooting
Pump is not drawing water effectively
Check for air leaks at all connections. Ensure the hose inlet is fully submerged and clear of obstructions. Verify the hose is correctly attached to the suction side of the pump.
Hose appears to be collapsing
Ensure the hose is only used on the suction side. Check that the pump is operating within its designed parameters and that the water source is not too low, causing excessive vacuum.
Difficulty connecting hose to pump
Ensure you are using the correct adapter if needed and that the hose end and pump inlet are clean. Verify the diameter compatibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Connect one end of the hose securely to the suction inlet port of your compatible Loops Surface Mounting Water Pump. Ensure the connection is watertight to prevent air leaks, which can reduce pump efficiency. The other end should be placed in the water source, ensuring it is fully submerged and free from debris that could block the intake.
Compatibility: This hose is specifically designed for the suction side of the ys11768 and similar Loops Surface Mounting Water Pump models. Verify that your pump's inlet fitting matches the 25mm diameter and the required connection type.
Care: After each use, rinse the inside of the hose with clean water to remove any sediment or debris. Store the hose in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals to prolong its lifespan. Avoid leaving it exposed to extreme temperatures.
