Lpg is fine with 100m of gardiner green , the only down side is that more heat is lost on the way to brush than if using microbore

What do you need to have your pump running at with 100m of pole hose to get a good flow?

I don't know about using an lpg heater but:
I've used Gardiners reinforced pole hose on my main reel for 5 years. It's just coming up for renewal, so I will buy the same again.
As it's reinforced, its outer diameter is 9mm not 8mm.
I don't know if this extra 1mm will help add to heat retention.
Is anyone else using it with hot?

Its not as simple as that , it depends on what jets/fans you have on the brush really , and what pump LPM you have , one person could get way better flow due to these things , i use a 4lpm shurflo with red Gardiner fans and set on 80 i get 1.7 lpm at the brush
