Avoiding Flexi Hose Damage

At Fallon Plumbing, we recommend the following steps to keep your flexi hoses in top condition and avoid costly water damage:

1. Regular Inspections: Check your flexi hoses every 6 months for signs of wear, such as bulging, corrosion, or leaks. Pay special attention to hoses in high-use areas like kitchens and laundries.
2. Replace Every 5-10 Years: Even if your flexi hose looks fine, it’s a good idea to replace it every 5-10 years as a preventative measure.
3. Avoid Over-Tightening: When installing or replacing a flexi hose, ensure it’s tightened correctly but not over-tightened, as this can damage the fittings.
4. Use Quality Products: Invest in high-quality flexi hoses with reinforced braiding and durable inner tubes. Cheap hoses may save you money upfront but can cost you dearly in the long run.
5. Call the Experts: If you’re unsure about the condition of your flexi hoses or need help with installation, contact a professional plumber like Fallon Plumbing. Our team of experts can assess your plumbing system and recommend the best solutions to keep your home safe.

The Risks of Flexi Hoses

According to industry reports, flexi hoses are responsible for more than 50% of all water damage claims in Australian homes. Here’s why:

Material Degradation: The inner tube of a flexi hose is made of rubber or PVC, which can deteriorate over time due to constant water pressure, temperature fluctuations, and chemical exposure. This can lead to cracks, leaks, or even bursts.

External Damage: The stainless-steel braiding may look tough, but it can corrode or fray, especially in humid environments like under sinks or in laundry rooms.

Poor Installation: Incorrect installation, such as over-tightening or bending the hose too sharply, can weaken the hose and lead to premature failure.

Lack of Maintenance: Many homeowners don’t realise that flexi hoses require regular inspection and replacement. A neglected hose can fail suddenly, causing significant water damage.

When a flexi hose fails, it can release hundreds of litres of water in a short time, leading to flooded rooms, damaged furniture, and even structural issues. The cost of repairs can run into tens of thousands of dollars, not to mention the stress and inconvenience of dealing with insurance claims.
