Active Aqua 1/2 in ID Black Tubing, 100 ft roll

Active Aqua 1/2 in ID Black Tubing, roll of 100 ft, is flexible black hydroponic hose in a bulk roll, designed for building large systems or having enough spare parts for several seasons. The black color blocks light inside the line, which is exactly what algae need to develop and obstruct the passage of the solution.

Benefits

• 100-foot roll with 1/2 in internal diameter: enough for complete installations.
• Flexible vinyl that conforms to the system's routes without easily collapsing.
• Black color that blocks light and helps curb algae growth.
• Suitable for supply lines from the reservoir, irrigation manifolds, and drainage connections.
• Compatible with 1/2 in internal diameter barbed fittings and couplings.

How to use

Cut the length you need with a sharp blade, leaving the end clean and square. If the hose is stiff, submerge the tip in warm water for a few seconds to soften it before fitting it into the connection. Secure the joints with clamps on pressurized lines and store any leftover hose loosely coiled in a cool, dry place.

Available at Pachamama with shipping throughout Costa Rica.
