Drainage pipes are the business. 4-6" should do it, keeps all the hose from hanging down too. Not to heavy to mount to the roof.

I've fixed mine with cable ties. I used the largest/strongest I could find.

You need it quite wide otherwise it will pinch the pole hose.

Trafic and a Pug Partner.. The 4" pipe is less than a tenner for a 3m length from B and Q, cut it half and you have 2  ;)
