Picatu 2" x 100 ft Backwash Hose — 2" PVC Lay-Flat Pool Drain Hose with Aluminum Pin-Lug Fittings, 90 PSI

Picatu's 2" x 100 ft heavy-duty PVC backwash hose is a reinforced, lay-flat pool drain hose with aluminum pin-lug fittings designed for reliable discharge from pool pumps and filters.

If you need a long, robust hose for backwashing, draining or moving large volumes of water, this Picatu hose combines a three-layer PVC body with polyester reinforcement and corrosion-resistant fittings. It lays flat for compact storage, resists kinks and twisting during use, and includes male and female aluminum pin-lug connectors so it screws directly to most pump or filter outlets.

How durable is this hose for repeated pool backwashes?

The hose is built for heavy, recurring use: its three-layer PVC construction includes an inner and outer abrasion-resistant layer and a reinforced polyester yarn center that prevents blowouts and stretching. Coupled with stainless steel clamp assembly and aluminum lug fittings, it resists rust and maintains a tight, leak-free connection over many seasons.

• 100 ft length for long runs without joins
• 3-layer PVC body with polyester reinforcement
• 90 PSI working pressure rating for common pump systems
• Aluminum pin-lug fittings secured by stainless steel clamps

Will this hose fit my pool pump or filter?

This model uses a 2" internal diameter and comes with standard 2" male and female pin-lug connectors that match common pump and filter outlets. The included brass-swivel nut on the female side and screw-on design make attachment straightforward for most above-ground and in-ground systems.

• 2" ID matches standard backwash/pump outlets
• Male and female pin-lug connectors included
• Brass swivel nut on the female fitting for secure sealing
• Screws on directly—no special adapters usually required

How easy is handling, storage, and installation?

The lay-flat design keeps the hose compact when empty, making storage and transport simple. Its flexible PVC construction resists twisting and kinking while still remaining pliable enough to route around landscaping or pool hardware. Installation is a matter of aligning the lug fittings and tightening the connection with the supplied clamps or your pump's threaded outlet.

• Lays flat when drained to save storage space
• Flexibility reduces kinks and improves routing
• Quick screw-on installation to pump/filter outlets
• Suitable for temporary or seasonal use

Can I use this hose for other water-transfer jobs?

Yes—beyond pool backwash and draining, the hose works for irrigation, construction site drainage, and general water transfer where a durable, long lay-flat hose is required. Its reinforced body and fittings handle common outdoor demands, though it’s not intended for drinking water or high-temperature steam applications.

• Useful for agricultural irrigation and site dewatering
• Works with skimmers, pumps, and portable filters
• Not recommended for potable water or extreme temperatures
• Good choice for seasonal or semi-permanent installs

Who is this for? Pool owners, maintenance contractors, landscapers and contractors who need a long, dependable discharge hose will appreciate this Picatu model. It’s best for anyone wanting a ready-to-connect 100 ft hose that stores flat, resists wear and corrosion, and comes with solid aluminum fittings—ideal for routine backwashing, draining, and other outside water-movement tasks.
