Whatever you do don't buy hot hose to only use with cold.
It's properly annoying!

Thanks for the replys,

I was actually looking at that same hose Ben, is this what you use? Do you have any problems using with just cold?

Darren why is it annoying how does the hose react just using cold?

the orange pu hose from gardiners is not up to the job with hot water IMO.it just popped out off my aqua-daptor with temperatures of 40 degrees the other week.

the red aqua-daptor hose on the other hand IS up to the job and works well with hot.its a lot firmer than the gardiners hose at higher temperatures.
price higher/work harder!

It just kinks a lot.
And when it kinks your water stops.
I use hot on cal or gas, only notice it when my gas runs out and its less than about 5 degrees.
I've never had issue with hot water though, i like it.
Just cold niggles me.

completely disagree with you Daz!!!of course the pu hose from gardiner is great for hot water!!! just remove your rubbish aqua dapter and you would find the pole hose great! Alex doesn't do a pole hose for aqua dapter because he doesn't  recommend the use of an Aquadapter!!!
Would you tow a caravan with a ferrari? i don't think so! so please remove your aqua dapter from your xtreme and use the hot pole hose from gardiner  ;)

no ben i wouldnt use my extreme 25 without an aqua-daptor.its the fastest way to work for me.i have a pole hose tap on my 47 as working at these heights its better to NOT have an aqua-daptor on.
price higher/work harder!

Gardeners PU hot hose is very similar to aquadapter hose when used cold,a nightmare to use just now in the cold weather,

Gardeners yellow pole hose seems good but I only tried it for a few days but much nicer to use
