Pressure Washer Extension Hose

[Karl]

After cleaning mine and the misses clio yesterday got a bit fed up having to keep moving the pressure washer around the car !

Dad asked me to clean his today while i was polishing the 133 at the same time so i had a look online found a karcher one for £35 for 6ms. Then fought ill have a quick looking B&Q and found this

Cheers for the link mate, defo gonna get one of these! You saw the mess I got in tripping over hoses all the time just moving around two cars the other day lol.

 

[Karl]

Now you have to be carefull you have a k series connection and a HD pro also be carefull as not all K series work together as they go from k1 - k7

How far away do you have the pressure washer? lol

Only reason I ask is that I have a standard Karcher with the original hose and I manage to get round the Megane let alone the Twingo without having to move it.

I wonder if Karcher have saved some pennies and made them shorter? haha

 

[Matt]

I found mine was too short to comfortably move around the car and will get an extension like this. It makes life easier

I would rather keep my pressure washer in one place and walk all the way around the car without having to move the hose/pressure washer. Normally you'd have to walk BACK around the car and then go the opposite way to reach some areas.. No thanks just once round please

All Karchers have different size hoses dependant on the model as i found out :lol:

When i was looking to buy the was 3m 4m and 5m hoses that come with the washer.

That may explain it mate. The one on mine means I have the hose is long enough to reach round to the front no problem, with the pressure washer about 4ft behind the car.

Proberly the machine comes with a longer hose mines got 3 or 4 metres so with the extenion hose makes it spot on

On a pressure washer related note, if you find the hose catches round the corners of each wheel you could try these Hose Blockers. Dodo Juice do them for about £12 for 4.

 

[Karl]

How do they work ?

You put one on each wheel and they stop the hose from getting caught, they are a very good idea. I don't currently stock them but if anyone would like a set, I can get hold of them when I next place an order with Dodo Juice.

 

[TripleJay]

for what max tyre width are they?

 

[Monster Detail]

I think they'll fit almost any tyre size mate, unless you've got a monster truck? lol

 

[Karl]

I cant see how you put the against the wheels
