I have 75 feet of pipe to try and clear, should I buy the 60' ? and will the pressure washer hose make up the difference, or do I need the 90'

I was able to use my pressure washer hose to add extra length to the drain cleaning hose.

Buy the 90. it works fantastic. I own a carwash with multiple underground pipes that need cleaning every 4-6 months. I cannot say enough about how well it works.

I would get the 90' hose for future use if nothing else. You may need it later and you don't have to stuff all of it down the drain.

Is guess that depends on the length of the washer hose and if you are connect g directly to it with no shutoff as in trigger control Could be dangerous if after the trigger then 90' would be required

buy the 90, the hose connects to the sprayer so you wont be able to use the hose from machine to sprayer to go up the pipe.

While the Good Year is a good hose I find it to be difficult to "coil up" in order to hang it from hanger.. Good Year does also have a smaller diameter hose that would better suit the average homeowner do-it-yourselfer.. I've seen it at Lowes and HD..... The standard sized hose is in a box approx. 12"X13"X4" while the other is in a smaller box.. If you think you will need 50ft of hose DO NOT buy a 50fter!! Buy 2ea 25ft , they're easier to handle and IF YOU ever NEED 50ft you can connect them with the snap couplers.. The same holds true with the 50' or more, that you mentioned.. Buy 2 50's rather than the 100' hose.. EASE OF HANDELNG !!

I have the 15 foot and a 10 foot extension. I've used the sewer hose about 15 times since purchase and have not need the extension yet.

Depends on how much water pressure you have. We have a very high water pressure and it wasn't a problem for me to have at 75' end. But if your water pressure is not good then I am sure this would be the case.

No we have used 150' lengths and the pressure is adjustable at your machine.

It should work. I use about 100 foot hose. I do not think the diameter the hose would matter.

Yes (very slight), as the longer the hose, the more resistance and distance the water has to be pushed, however I doubt you would be able to discern the difference. I have a 25' and 50' hose and both work equally well. As a matter of fact, I never use my 25' hose at all any more.

I put liquid silicone (the kind you can dip tool handles in, comes in a can) over my connection so I can use most of the 50' in piping. Of course in my case I run it from my desktop computer to the drain lines in my house so I only really need about 35' of the 50' in the pipe. The rest runs from the clean out to my desktop computer in the den. I record on my computer instead of connecting this to a camera.

In the past I've used L P service facility to make special hoses I would say you could get a longer hose however it's probably not an off the shelf item. Can't never did anything.

I bought the longest hose. It goes from the water spiked on one side of my house to the other. The longer one costs a little more but it was worth it.

You can also get a 100 foot pocket hose that is 3x stronger. I just ordered one from amazon. It cost a bit more.

Drain line slope, size, material, path and turns matter. For example the drain should drop .25 inch to 3.75 inches per foot or be vertices for Gravity fed systems. A power system might overcome some problems with fall near the toilet. You still need a 3 inch line or what ever local codes dictate. 60 feet Is a long line. You want gravity to do most of the work. If you are thinking a power assisted toilet just pushes no matter what I'd ask a plumber or an experienced handyman to look at your installation. Good luck

I have a 50' 5/8" heavy duty hose on it right now and there is still room for more. I think 75" of heavy duty hose will max it out. I have only had this since last summer no leaks as of yet. I like it. I has a suncast one that this replaced this is leap years better!!

80lbs would do 1 -2 inches in 75, it works fine with siphon hose. Just make sure to rinse it in small 4-5 lbs batches until water runs clear if not tank eill be cloudy a very long time.

Hi John, I think you are on the right track. I myself use a 50 ft hose, the manual also mentions this. I have used my pressure washer over a dozen times with no problem. I am thinking with the longer 100ft hose the pressure must be to low for the unit to be efficeint. I do use a 3/8, 50 foot pressure hose from the unit to the pressure sprayer and get great results.

For this set all of the hoses are 60" long. The same manifold is available with a longer set of hoses if that is needed for your application.

I have the 50' GY, and it is a quality hose. I have also started using in the shop, the Kolbalt curled type hose, it is very flexible, even in cold weather, and has a Lifetime Warranty - under $15.00
