DAVCO 3" x 25 ft Pool Backwash Hose — Heavy-Duty PVC Reinforced, 90 PSI Working Pressure

DAVCO 3" x 25 ft Pool Backwash Hose is a heavy-duty, PVC-reinforced discharge hose built to handle high-pressure pool backwash and general water removal tasks reliably.

This 3-inch by 25-foot backwash hose combines a multi-layer PVC construction with polyester yarn reinforcement to deliver strength, flexibility and resistance to weather, chemicals and bursts. Designed to connect to standard 3" filter outlets, cam lock or pin lug fittings, it also adapts to smaller schedule 40/80 PVC pipe, making it a versatile addition to pool maintenance kits, irrigation setups and portable pumping needs.

How durable is this hose for repeated pool backwash cycles?

The hose is engineered for repeated use rather than one-off disposal. A reinforced PVC body with polyester yarn provides higher tensile strength and resistance to rough handling compared with single-layer or paper-thin alternatives.

• Rated to resist 90 psi working pressure during pump operation.
• Multi-layer construction prevents splitting and bursting under stress.
• Chemical- and weather-resistant materials extend service life around pools.

Will it fit my pool filter, pump or plumbing connections?

This backwash hose uses a standard 3" flat width (5" when laid flat) to match common filter outlets and cam-lock/pin-lug adapters. It also works with 2.5" or smaller schedule 40/80 PVC pipe, but you should measure your filter outlet before purchasing to ensure a snug fit.

• Fits 3" filter outlets and most 3" cam lock or pin lug fittings.
• Compatible with 2.5" and smaller schedule 40/80 PVC with appropriate adapter.
• Easy clamp installation secures connection without special tools.

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

Beyond pool filter backwash, the hose is suitable for a broad range of water transfer jobs. Its heavy-duty construction makes it useful for temporary drainage, irrigation, dewatering construction sites, and connecting to submersible pumps.

• Works as a pool drain, pump discharge, or filter waste hose.
• Useful for agricultural irrigation and landscape watering setups.
• Suitable for construction dewatering and emergency water removal.

How should I store and care for the hose to maximize lifespan?

After each use, drain and roll the hose for compact storage in a dry, shaded location to prevent UV degradation. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and chemicals when storing, and inspect fittings and clamps for wear before reuse.

• Roll up flat to save space and allow thorough drying.
• Store indoors or in shaded areas to reduce UV damage.
• Check clamps and connection points for leaks prior to use.

Who is this for? The DAVCO 3" x 25 ft Pool Backwash Hose is aimed at pool owners, service technicians and contractors who need a reusable, heavy-duty discharge hose that fits standard 3" outlets. It's also a practical option for landscapers, farmers and construction crews who require a portable, chemically resistant hose for irrigation, dewatering or pump discharge tasks. If you want a more durable, long-lasting backwash and pump hose than thin single-layer alternatives, this model is built for repeated, reliable use.
