Hiki iā BobVila.com a me kāna mau hoa ke loaʻa i kahi komisina inā kūʻai ʻoe i kahi huahana ma o kekahi o kā mākou mau loulou.
Loaʻa paha iā ʻoe kahi hose no ka hoʻoinu ʻana i nā lau nahele a me nā mea kanu māla i loko o nā ipu hao a no ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i nā alanui hele wāwae. Eia nō naʻe, inā like ʻoe me nā poʻe he nui, ua paʻakikī paha kēlā hose i nā makahiki, ua hana i nā kinks i hiki ʻole ke hoʻoponopono ʻia, a ua loaʻa kekahi mau leaka. No ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i kahi hose māla hou, hiki i ke alakaʻi ma lalo nei ke kōkua iā ʻoe e ʻike i ka hose maikaʻi loa no nā pono wai like ʻole a me nā kālā.
E heluhelu e aʻo hou e pili ana i nā mea hou e hana ai i nā hose kiʻekiʻe o kēia lā a e aʻo e pili ana i nā mea nui ʻē aʻe a me nā noʻonoʻo ʻana i ke koho ʻana i ka hose māla maikaʻi loa. ʻO nā hose māla ma lalo nei nā koho kiʻekiʻe no nā ʻano hana hoʻoinu wai home like ʻole.
Loaʻa nā hose māla i nā ʻano lōʻihi like ʻole, a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kekahi no nā ʻano hoʻoinu a hoʻomaʻemaʻe paha ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe. Inā ʻoe e ʻimi nei e hoʻohui i nā sprinklers he nui e hana i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻoinu e uhi ana i kou pā hale holoʻokoʻa, a i ʻole ʻoe e ʻimi nei i kahi hose e hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe i ka wai ma lalo o nā mea kanu ʻāina, aia ka hose māla kūpono ma laila. Eia pehea e loaʻa ai.
I nā makahiki he ʻumi i hala iho nei, ua ulu nā ʻano hose māla i loaʻa e komo pū me nā hose māmā, makepono no ka hoʻoinu wai palena ʻia a me nā hiʻohiʻona hana kaumaha no nā pono wai pinepine a kiʻekiʻe paha. Hiki i nā mea kūʻai ke loaʻa nā hose māla hiki ke huki ʻia e hohola i ka lōʻihi piha ke kahe ka wai, akā huki i ka hapakolu o ko lākou nui no ka mālama ʻana. ʻO nā hana hoʻoinu wai maʻamau e hoʻoholo i ke ʻano hose maikaʻi loa e koho ai.
He 25 a 75 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi o nā hose māla he nui, ʻo 50 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi maʻamau. ʻO kēia ka mea e kūpono ai lākou no ka hiki ʻana i ka hapa nui o nā wahi o ka pā hale maʻamau. Hiki i nā hose lōʻihi (100 kapuaʻi a ʻoi aku paha ka lōʻihi) ke kaumaha, nui, a paʻakikī ke ʻōwili a mālama. Inā he pilikia ka neʻe ʻana i ka hose a puni, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kūʻai ʻana i nā hose he nui o nā lōʻihi pōkole a hoʻohui iā lākou inā pono e hiki i nā mamao lōʻihi. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka lōʻihi o ke ana ʻia ʻana o ka hose, e emi ana ke kahe o ka wai.
No ka poʻe me ke kaomi wai haʻahaʻa ma ka faucet, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hose pōkole. ʻO nā hose hoʻohui pōkole ma kahi o 6 a 10 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi a ua hoʻolālā ʻia e hoʻohui i kahi moʻo o nā sprinklers e hana i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻoinu wai ma luna o ka honua.
ʻO ka hose maʻamau he ⅝ ʻīniha ke anawaena a kūpono ia i ka hapa nui o nā kumu wai o waho. ʻO ka hose ākea (a hiki i ka 1 ʻīniha ke anawaena) e hāʻawi i ka wai hou aku ma ka nui, akā e hāʻule ke kaomi wai i kona puka ʻana mai ka hose. I ke koho ʻana i kahi hose ākea, e hōʻoia i ka lawa ʻana o ke kaomi wai ma ka faucet. ʻO nā hose haiki ma lalo o ka ½ ʻīniha he kūpono ia no nā faucets me ke kaomi wai haʻahaʻa.
E hoʻomanaʻo ʻaʻole like ka nui o nā mea hoʻopili hose me ke anawaena o ka hose - ua hoʻolālā ʻia ka hapa nui o nā mea pono e kūpono i nā mea hoʻopili maʻamau ⅝ ʻīniha, akā e kūpono kekahi mau mea hoʻopili ¾ ʻīniha. Hoʻokomo kekahi mau mea hana i kahi mea hoʻoponopono kūpono e hiki ai ke hoʻopili ʻia ʻelua mau nui o nā mea hoʻopili. Inā ʻaʻole, loaʻa koke nā mea hoʻoponopono ma nā kikowaena lako a me nā kikowaena hoʻomaikaʻi home.
ʻO ke kūpaʻa wai a me ka maʻalahi nā mea nui ʻelua i ke koho ʻana i kahi mea hose.
Loaʻa i kekahi mau hose māla (ʻaʻole nā ​​​​mea āpau) kahi helu kaomi, i kapa ʻia ʻo "burst pressure," e hōʻike ana i ka nui o ke kaomi wai kūloko e kū ai ka hose ma mua o ka pahū ʻana. ʻO ke kaomi wai ma ka faucet ma ka hapa nui o nā hale ma waena o 45 a me 80 paona no ka ʻīniha kuea (psi), akā inā ua kau ka faucet a piha ka hose i ka wai, e ʻoi aku ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kaomi wai maoli i loko o ka hose.
Pono ka hapa nui o nā hose noho e loaʻa kahi helu kaomi pahū ma ka liʻiliʻi he 350 psi inā e hoʻohana mau ʻia. Hiki i nā hose pipiʻi ke loaʻa nā helu kaomi pahū e like me 200 psi, ʻoiai hiki i nā hose kiʻekiʻe ke loaʻa nā helu kaomi pahū e like me 600 psi.
Hoʻopaʻa kekahi mau hose i ke kaomi hana ma kahi o ke kaomi pahū, a ʻoi aku ka haʻahaʻa o kēia mau kaomi, mai kahi 50 a 150 psi. Hōʻike wale lākou i ke kaomi awelika i hoʻolālā ʻia ai ka hose e kū i ka wā e kahe ana ka wai i loko a i waho. Manaʻo ʻia kahi kaomi hana o 80 psi a ʻoi aku paha.
ʻO nā mea hana keleawe, alumini a me ke kila kila kila ka lōʻihi loa o ke ola a hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia me nā hose hana waena a me ke kaumaha. Loaʻa paha i nā hose māmā nā mea hana palaki, a ʻaʻole lākou e lōʻihi e like me nā mea hana kiʻekiʻe. Ma waho aʻe o nā mea hana wili, loaʻa i kekahi mau hose nā mea hana wikiwiki e hoʻopili ai a hoʻokaʻawale i nā hose i nā faucets a i ʻole nā ​​hose ʻē aʻe i maʻalahi.
I ke kūʻai ʻana i nā hose, e hoʻomanaʻo inā pono ʻoe e hoʻohui i ʻelua a ʻoi aku paha nā hose. He nui nā hose i loaʻa nā mea hoʻopili ma nā wēlau ʻelua, akā hoʻokahi wale nō mea hoʻopili o kekahi mau hose hoʻoluʻu - ʻo ia ka mea e hoʻopili ai i ke kumu wai. Inā pono ʻoe e hoʻopili i nā ʻano hose soaker, e ʻimi pono i nā hiʻohiʻona me nā mea hoʻopili ma nā wēlau ʻelua.
Ma ke ʻano laulā, ʻo nā hose kekahi o nā mea hana māla a me ka māla palekana loa, akā no ka poʻe e hoʻoinu i nā holoholona a inu paha mai ka hopena o ka hose, ʻo ka hose palekana wai inu ka koho maikaʻi loa. Ke hana nei nā mea hana he nui i nā hose palekana wai inu ʻaʻohe ona kemika e hiki ke komo i loko o ka wai, no laila palekana ka wai e like me kona haʻalele ʻana i ka hopena o ka hose i kona komo ʻana. Hoʻopaʻa pinepine ʻia kēia mau hose ʻo "BPA Free," "Lead Free," a me "Phthalate Free."
I mea e koho maikaʻi ai, pono nā hose māla ma lalo nei e ikaika, palupalu, paʻa, me nā mea pono e hoʻokomo maʻalahi. ʻOkoʻa nā pono hoʻoinu wai, no laila ʻo ka hose māla maikaʻi loa no kekahi kanaka ʻaʻole paha ia ka mea maikaʻi loa no kekahi. ʻO kēia mau hose nā mea maikaʻi loa i kā lākou papa, a hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia kekahi no nā kumu like ʻole.
ʻO ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i ke kūpaʻa kiʻekiʻe, ka palekana a me ka lawelawe mai kahi hose māla maʻamau ⅝ ʻīniha ʻaʻole pono e nānā hou aku ma mua o kēia set o nā hose māla 50ft mai Zero Gravity. E hoʻohana wale i nā hose, a i ʻole e hoʻohui iā lākou i nā lōʻihi 100 kapuaʻi (loaʻa paha nā lōʻihi a me nā diameters ʻē aʻe). Loaʻa i ka hose kahi ʻōpū vinyl palupalu i loko e palekana ke inu a ua wahī ʻia i loko o kahi papa mānoanoa o ka fiber ulana kiʻekiʻe e hoʻoikaika a pale i ka hose.
He kiʻekiʻe ka helu pahū o ka Zero Gravity Hose o 600 psi, e lilo ia i hoʻokahi o nā hose paʻakikī loa a puni, akā e mau ana ka maʻalahi ʻoiai ma 36 degere Fahrenheit. Hana ʻia nā mea hoʻohui i ka alumini paʻa no ka ikaika a hōʻike i nā mea hoʻokomo keleawe no ka lōʻihi. He 10 paona ke kaumaha o kēlā me kēia hose.
ʻO ka hose palupalu ʻo Grace Green Garden he kūpaʻa i ka ʻoki ʻana a noho palupalu i nā mahana haʻahaʻa e like me -40 degere Fahrenheit, e kūpono ai no ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā aniau anuanu. ʻO ke anawaena o ka hose he ⅝ ʻīniha a he 100 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi (loaʻa nā lōʻihi ʻē aʻe). Loaʻa iā ia kahi kumu vinyl palupalu he 30% māmā ma mua o ka laholio a me kahi pūpū waho paʻa i pale i ka UV, ozone a me ka haki.
Hele mai ʻo Grace Green Garden Hose me kahi mea hoʻopili pili anti-squeeze. Loaʻa iā ia nā lima ergonomically padded ma nā wēlau ʻelua e hōʻemi i ka luhi lima i ka wā e hoʻohana ai i ka hose me kahi wand a i ʻole nozzle. Ma ke ʻano he bonus, hele mai ka hose me kahi pū pīpī zinc alloy a me ke kaula hoʻololi e hoʻopaʻa pono i ka hose i loko o ka loop ke hoʻohana ʻole ʻia. ʻO ke kaumaha o ka hose Grace Green Garden he 15.51 lbs.
ʻAʻole pono ka hose māla kūpono e hoʻolōʻihi i ke kālā. ʻO ka GrowGreen Expandable Garden Hose e ulu a hiki i 50 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi ke hoʻopiha piha ʻia me ka wai, akā e emi ana i ka hapakolu o kona lōʻihi ke pio ka wai, a ʻoi aku ke kaumaha ma mua o 3 paona. Loaʻa iā GrowGreen kahi paipu loko latex a me kahi papa pale waho i hana ʻia me nā olonā ulana. Hele mai ia me nā mea hoʻopili keleawe paʻa no nā pilina paʻa a ʻaʻohe leak.
He hose huki ʻia ʻo GrowGreen a ʻaʻole kūpono no ka hoʻohana ʻana me ka hapa nui o nā sprinklers ʻano lawn no ka mea aia ka hose i ke ʻano huki ʻia ma mua o ka hoʻopiha ʻia ʻana me ka wai. Akā hele mai ka hose me kahi nozzle hoʻāla 8-mode hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia i nā ʻano pīpī like ʻole no nā ʻano hana hoʻoinu wai āpau.
ʻAʻohe pono e hopohopo e pili ana i ka Rover e nahu ana i kahi lua i loko o ka Re Cromtac Garden Hose - he uhi kila kila kona e pale aku ai i nā punctures a me nā ʻōpala. ʻO ke anawaena o ka paipu kūloko palupalu he ⅜ ʻīniha, ʻoi aku ka haiki ma mua o ka hapa nui o nā hiʻohiʻona. He kūpono ia no ka hoʻoinu ʻana i ka wai me ka lima a hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia i kahi sprinkler paʻa.
He māmā iki ka Cromtac, ʻoi aku ke kaumaha ma mua o 8 paona a he 50 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi. Inā pono, e hoʻohui i ʻelua mau hose no ka lōʻihi keu, a i ʻole e nānā i nā lōʻihi hose keu e loaʻa paha. Hele mai ka hose me nā mea hoʻopili keleawe paʻa a hiki ke maʻalahi ke wili ʻia ma kahi wili a mālama ʻia paha ma ka lima.
No ka mālama liʻiliʻi a me ka maʻalahi hiki ke hoʻonui ʻia, e nānā i ka Zoflaro Expandable Hose, kahi e ulu ai mai 17 kapuaʻi a 50 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi ke hoʻopiha ʻia me ka wai. Loaʻa paha nā nui ʻē aʻe. Loaʻa i ka paipu o loko ʻehā papa o ka latex kiʻekiʻe, a hōʻike ka Zoflaro i kahi uhi ulana polyester paʻa e kū'ē i ka abrasion a me ka leak-proof. Ua hoʻolālā ʻia kēia hose hoʻonui no ka hoʻohana ʻana me nā mea pīpī lāʻau a lima paha, ʻaʻole nā ​​​​mea pīpī paʻa.
Loaʻa iā Zoflaro kahi nozzle hoʻāla 10-hana e pīpī i nā ʻano kahe wai like ʻole e like me ka jet, advection a me ka ʻauʻau. Loaʻa iā ia nā mea hoʻohui keleawe paʻa no nā pilina paʻa a ʻaʻohe leak. ʻO ke kaumaha o ka hose he 2.73 lbs wale nō.
E hoʻopiha i ke kīʻaha wai o kāu holoholona a i ʻole e kū e inu pololei mai ka hose me ka Flexzilla Drinking Water Safety Hose, kahi e ʻole ai e hoʻokuʻu i nā mea haumia ʻino i loko o ka wai. ʻO ke anawaena o nā hose Flexzilla he ⅝ ʻīniha a he 50 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi, akā loaʻa kekahi mau nui ʻē aʻe. He māmā ia ma 8 paona wale nō, e maʻalahi ai ke kāʻei a mālama ʻia ma kahi lou paia.
Loaʻa i ka hose Flexzilla kahi hana SwivelGrip i hiki i ka mea hoʻohana ke wehe i ka hose wili ma ka wili wale ʻana i ka lima ma kahi o ka hose holoʻokoʻa. Hana ʻia ka hose mai kahi polymer hybrid palupalu e noho palupalu ana i ke anuanu, a palekana ka ʻōmole o loko no ka wai inu. Hana ʻia nā mea pono me ka alumini pale i ka haki no ka lōʻihi.
E pale i nā kinks hoʻonāukiuki me ka Yamatic Garden Hose, nona kahi No Permanent Kink Memory (NPKM) kūʻokoʻa e pale ai i ka hose mai ka kink a me ka wili ʻana ma kāna iho. ʻAʻohe pono e huki pololei i ka hose - e hoʻā wale i ka wai a e hoʻopololei ke kaomi a wehe i nā kinks, e waiho ana iā ʻoe me kahi hose laumania e hiki ke kū i ka 600 psi o ke kaomi wai me ka ʻole o ka pahū ʻana.
He ʻīniha ke anawaena o ka hose YAMATIC a he 30 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi. Hana ʻia ia mai ka polyurethane ʻalani ʻālohilohi a ua hoʻokomo ʻia me ka pale UV e mālama i ka hose i ka palupalu no ka manawa lōʻihi. He mau mea hoʻohui keleawe paʻa kona a he 8.21 lbs ke kaumaha.
E hoʻohana i ka Rocky Mountain Commercial Flat Dip Hose e hāʻawi pololei i ka wai i nā aʻa o nā mea kanu māla a me nā ʻāina. Ua uhi ʻia ka hose me ka PVC palupalu a uhi ʻia me kahi lole ikaika loa i hana ʻia no ka haehae ʻana. Hāʻawi kēia hoʻolālā i kahi lako wai mau akā lohi i kahi e pono ai nā mea kanu - ma ko lākou aʻa.
Hoʻomoe pālahalaha ka hose a he 1.5″ ka laulā ke hoʻohana ʻole ʻia no ka ʻōwili maʻalahi a me ka mālama ʻana. He 12 auneke wale nō kona kaumaha a he 25 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi. Me kahi mea hoʻopili metala, hiki i nā māla ke mālama a hiki i ka 70% o ka wai ma ka hoʻohana ʻana i kēia hose soaker ma kahi o kahi sprinkler lawn paʻa, kahi i ʻoi aku ka nui o ka mahu a me ka nui o ka kahe ʻana o ka wai i hoʻonele ʻia.
No ke kūpaʻa o ka hose laholio a me ka lawelawe lōʻihi, e nānā i ka Briggs & Stratton Premium Rubber Garden Hose e kūʻē i ka kinking a noho palupalu ʻoiai i nā mahana haʻahaʻa e like me -25 degere Fahrenheit. He kūpono kēia hose kaila ʻoihana no nā mea holoi mana, nā sprinklers a i ʻole nā ​​​​nozzles lima a me nā wands. Hiki iā ia ke kū a hiki i 500 psi o ke kaomi wai me ka ʻole o ka pahū ʻana.
ʻO ka hose Briggs & Stratton ⅝ ʻīniha he 75 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi a ʻo ke kaumaha he 14.06 lbs. Loaʻa pū kekahi mau lōʻihi ʻē aʻe. Hele mai ka hose me nā mea keleawe i uhi ʻia me ka nickel e kū i ke kaomi no nā pono wai āpau.
No ka hoʻoinu wai ʻana i ka pā hale nui, e noʻonoʻo i ka Giraffe Hybrid Garden Hose, he mea maʻalahi a hoʻolālā ʻia no ka hoʻohana kaumaha. He 100 kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi, akā loaʻa nō hoʻi nā lōʻihi pōkole, a hele mai ia i loko o kahi anawaena maʻamau ⅝ ʻīniha. Loaʻa i kēia hose kahi helu kaomi wai hana o 150 psi (ʻaʻohe wikiwiki pahū i loaʻa). Loaʻa iā ia nā mea keleawe nickel-plated me nā lima ergonomic ma kēlā me kēia wēlau e maʻalahi ai ka hoʻopili ʻana i ka hose.
Hana ʻia nā hose giraffe mai ʻekolu papa o nā polymers hybrid - kahi papa o loko e palupalu mau ana i ka hoʻoilo, kahi ulana e pale ai i nā kinks, a me kahi papa luna e paʻa a kū i ka abrasion. ʻO ke kaumaha o ka hose he 13.5 lbs.
No ka poʻe e ʻimi nei e kūʻai i kahi hose māla maikaʻi e kūpono i kā lākou mau pono, e manaʻo ʻia kekahi mau nīnau. ʻO ka manaʻo mua i ke ʻano o ka hoʻoinu ʻana e kōkua i ka hoʻoholo ʻana i ke ʻano a me ka nui o ka hose.
No ka hapa nui o nā home, ua lawa ka hose ⅝ ʻīniha ke anawaena no ka hapa nui o nā hana hoʻoinu wai. Loaʻa nā hose maʻamau i ka lōʻihi o 25 a 75 kapuaʻi, no laila e noʻonoʻo i ka nui o kou pā hale i ke kūʻai ʻana.
ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka maʻalahi o nā hose kiʻekiʻe i ka wili ʻana ma mua o nā hiʻohiʻona haʻahaʻa ke kumu kūʻai, akā e pōmaikaʻi nā hose āpau mai ka hoʻolōʻihi ʻana i ka hose ma hope koke o ka hoʻohana ʻana, a laila e wahī iā ia i loko o kahi pōʻai nui 2- a 3-kapuaʻi a kau iā ia ma kahi makau nui. A i ʻole, hiki i kahi ʻōwili māla no ka wahī ʻana a me ka mālama ʻana i nā hose ke kōkua i ka hōʻemi ʻana i nā wili.
Inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻoinu i nā mea kanu i loko o nā ipuhao a me nā wahi ʻē aʻe o ka māla me ka lima, ʻo ka nozzle pīpī ke ala e hele ai. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoponopono pololei i ke kahe ʻana ma ka mea kanu a hoʻopau iā ia i ka wā e huki ai a puni ka pā hale a i ʻole ka lānai.
ʻOiai nā hose paʻa loa e lōʻihi aku ka lōʻihi inā ʻaʻole lākou e waiho ʻia i waho o nā mea kūlohelohe. No ka hoʻohana pono ʻana i ka hose, e mālama iā ia i loko o ka hale kaʻa, ka lumi waihona, a i ʻole ka hale lalo ke hoʻohana ʻole ʻia.
