Its \u003cstrong\u003edouble-walled\u003c\/strong\u003e construction pairs a \u003cstrong\u003ewhite outer layer that reflects heat and light\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003eblack inner layer\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the wall is \u003cstrong\u003ereinforced with fibre mesh\u003c\/strong\u003e so the hose holds its shape under pump pressure and resists kinking on bends. The 25mm bore suits 25mm barbed tees, elbows and adaptors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReflects heat\u003c\/strong\u003e - the white outer wall helps keep nutrient solution cooler in a warm grow room, especially through summer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlocks light\u003c\/strong\u003e - the black inner wall stops light reaching the solution, so algae cannot take hold inside the line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFibre-mesh reinforced\u003c\/strong\u003e - resists kinking and collapsing on tight bends and under pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible\u003c\/strong\u003e - easy to route round tents, benches and reservoirs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits 25mm barbed fittings\u003c\/strong\u003e - push-fit tees, elbows and directors go straight in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarm Solution, Weak Roots\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNutrient solution picks up heat as it sits in thin, dark pipe under the lights. Warm water holds less dissolved oxygen, which stresses roots, slows growth and opens the door to root disease, while light getting into clear pipe feeds algae that later block drippers. A reflective, opaque feed line tackles both problems at the point where the solution spends most of its time outside the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut to length with a sharp knife or pipe cutter, keeping the end square.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDip the end in hot water for a few seconds before pushing it over barbed fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure joints on pumped lines with a hose clip or ratchet clamp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the hose away from direct contact with hot lamps and drivers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush the line with clean water between crops, and use a line cleaner if drippers start to block.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e PVC, fibre-mesh reinforced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e double wall - white outer, black inner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25mm barbed irrigation fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e pumped hydroponic feed lines, drip irrigation mains, greenhouse and garden watering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hydro Crop Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53803843059978,"sku":"HYD-HYDR-016-01","price":127.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/white-pvc-reinforced-hose-25mm-default-title-1.jpg?v=1790229967","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/white-pvc-reinforced-hose-25mm","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
