5/8 Flex Tech hose opinions??

[TBR Roof Cleaning WNY]

Contemplating going with 200' of Flex Tech hose. Besides Kevin's experience with the 3/4" testing,  I do not see any new reports or anyone for or against. 

My gut tells me to just go Kuri tech because of it's popularity and field proven test of time. 

I overthink most everything that requires me to part with $$ and I'm sure that from the lack of content on here regarding the Flex Tech hose I should just assume they are not the go to hose of choice. 

I still would like to hear from anyone that has used, or is still using the FT hose and their opinions based on their experience with the brand. 

Thanks

There are tons of Flex Tech Hoses being sold and used here in the Tampa Bay area. I have never tried it, but it looks real good, on paper.

Thanks Chris. The PWP store site states that there is lots of good feedback but I've yet to find any positive/negative feedback on here.  Guess I'll just go Kuri Hose. Wanna order some equipment today.

We are into our second season with ours. Still going strong.

Lori from PWP sells to nearly every roof cleaner in this area. I helped train her about roof cleaning equipment, so she knows what works, and what to avoid. I can not imagine her selling bad hose.

Thanks Kevin.  That is reassuring. I certainly want a reliable hose and I liked what I had read about the Flex Tech on their site.  I just wasn't comfortable making the decision without  positive feedback from someone on the forum like yourself that has had one in service for an extended period. Did you terminate with 316 SS?

Yup, we did. You have to redo them every few years as they get rusted but unless somebody can come up with a cheap source of Hastelloy crimps, just part of the game.

Yes, it is just part of the game, because the SH will eventually eat up almost any metals except Titanium or Hastelloy.

Yeah, That's true.
