DAVCO 1.5" x 50 ft Pool Backwash Hose — Heavy-Duty PVC Reinforced, 90 PSI Working Pressure

The DAVCO 1.5" x 50 ft pool backwash hose is a heavy-duty, PVC-reinforced discharge hose designed to handle pool filter backwash, pump discharge and general water removal jobs reliably and repeatedly.

This is a rugged, reusable replacement hose for pool filtration backwash and pump discharge needs. Constructed from PVC with polyester yarn reinforcement, the hose resists chemicals, UV exposure and burst or abrasion under typical pool and outdoor use. It fits standard 1.5" filter outlets and common cam-lock or pin-lug fittings, so installation is straightforward with a clamp or adapter. When not in use it rolls up flat for compact storage.

How durable is this hose for repeated pool backwash cycles?

The DAVCO backwash hose is built with a layered PVC body and woven polyester reinforcement to withstand frequent use and moderate rough handling. It’s rated for working pressures up to 90 psi and resists chemicals and weathering that commonly degrade thin single-layer hoses.

• PVC outer and inner layers for chemical and UV resistance
• Polyester yarn reinforcement for burst and abrasion resistance
• 90 psi working pressure rating for pump and backwash scenarios
• Designed for repeated rolling and deployment without splitting

Will it connect to my existing pool equipment and fittings?

The hose is a standard 1.5" diameter and lays flat to about 2.6" wide, matching most 1.5" filter outlets and many cam-lock or pin-lug connectors. It also adapts to some 1" or smaller schedule 40/80 PVC pipes with appropriate fittings—measure your outlet before ordering to ensure a snug fit.

• Standard 1.5" hose bore for compatibility with common filter outlets
• Flat width of approximately 2.6" when laid out
• Works with cam-lock, pin-lug, or clamp connections
• Can be adapted to smaller PVC pipes using reducers or adapters

What other tasks can this discharge hose handle besides pool backwash?

Beyond pool waste discharge, the DAVCO hose is suitable for general water removal tasks including dewatering at construction sites, irrigation and agricultural drainage, and use with submersible pumps. Its reinforced construction and chemical resistance make it versatile for outdoor water handling jobs.

• Pool pump discharge and filter waste evacuation
• Irrigation and landscaping drainage work
• Construction dewatering and temporary site drainage
• Compatible with many submersible and transfer pump outlets

How should I store and care for the hose to extend its life?

After use, drain and roll the hose flat and store it in a dry, shaded location away from direct sunlight to minimize UV degradation. Avoid dragging across sharp edges and use clamps or proper fittings to prevent pinched or stressed sections during operation.

• Drain water and roll up flat for compact storage
• Keep in a dry area out of direct sunlight to reduce UV wear
• Use clamps and compatible fittings to avoid leaks and stress
• Inspect before each season for cuts, wear, or weakened spots

Who is this for? The DAVCO 1.5" x 50 ft backwash hose is aimed at pool owners, service professionals and contractors who need a robust, reusable discharge hose that handles regular backwash cycles, pump discharge and general water removal. It’s appropriate for backyard pools, commercial filtration systems, landscapers managing irrigation drainage and construction crews needing a portable, durable water transfer solution. If you want a hose made to last longer than paper-thin single-layer alternatives and to pair easily with common fittings, this model fits those needs.
