Pipes and Hoses

Whether you're renovating a house or upgrading the plumbing on the farm, you will quickly find out that not all pipes and hoses are the same. 

Types of Hoses

* '''Steam''': You must take the temperature of the steam into consideration when buying a hose to transport this vapor. This is due to the fact steam can easily wear out certain materials such as rubber, and affect the hose's performance. * '''Water''': It doesn't matter if you're setting up a lawn sprinkler or transferring water, you will need a hose that is flexible and one that won't crack or split when under pressure. Water hoses can cost as little as $30, but if you're looking for a durable hose, don't be shy to spend money. Legacy's Flexzilla Polymer water hose is a combination of rubber and PVC, and can withstand temperatures as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. * '''Suction''': Most people are familiar with suction hoses because they're a main feature on vacuum cleaners. With the help of a suction device, these hoses can draw in anything from dirt to heavier pieces of material to liquids. Apache's suction hose is made specifically to suction and discharge water and chemicals in various situations such as irrigation and construction. 

Pipe Down

* '''Plastic''': There are different types of plastic used to create pipes. The most popular plastic pipe is known as PVC. This pipe is, for the most part, chemical resistant, and is used in sewers, drainage systems, and everyday plumbing. When it comes to supplying water at different temperatures, PVC is much more tolerant to the shifts from hot to cold. ABS plastic pipes are used for the same purposes as PVC, but have a lower chemical resistance. * '''Galvanized Steel''': Although it was most popular 50-plus years ago, galvanized steel pipes can still be found in old buildings and homes. A major problem with these pipes is slow corrosion, which eventually causes a buildup and drop in the water's flow. * '''Copper''': This is the most commonly used pipe material when it comes to industrial work. Copper is a soft metal, which makes it easier to cut and shape. However, the softness of copper causes it to crack in cold temperatures. Plus, if it's used to transfer water, copper has a greater chance for corrosion, stains, and contamination.
