Table of Content [Hide]

    Garden hose is an important tool in gardening life, which plays a key role in the healthy growth of plants, and a good quality garden hose can make our gardening work more efficient, but there is a problem that often occurs when we use garden hose: tangles and kinks.

     

    From 2010, Union Booster has summarized why garden hose tangles and kinks in 15 years of experience in garden tool production and customer feedback & innovations in garden hoses. Hope this article is helpful to you.

    Why Garden Hose Kinks and Tangles?

    • Material

    Cheap hose is usually thinner and less flexible, making it more prone to kinking. And over time, frequent bending of the pipe in one place can cause the area to become prone to leaks.


    • Length

    We usually choose the right length of hose for the size of the garden to ensure that the water can reach every corner of the garden. If the length of the hose is too long, it will cause unnecessary tangles and kinks.


    • Environmental

    The environment usually has an effect on the material of the water pipe; temperatures that are too hot or too cold can easily cause the pipe to become brittle or hardened, which may break or kink the pipe the next time it is used.


    • Storage

    When we need to use the water hose frequently, we would just leave it in a random pile on the floor after each use. This type of storage will easily cause the hose to tangle, and if the hose is stored in a random way, it will also easily cause kinks.

    How To Prevent Garden Hose From Kinks and Tangles?

    • Investing in quality garden hose

    The material of the hose is critical to whether or not the hose will kink and tangle. When choosing a water hose, consider the material of the kink-resistant hose so that it will be more convenient in use.


    • Try other type of hose

    As the horticultural industry develops, more and more garden watering tools are appearing, their structure and materials are different from the traditional garden hose, which fundamentally avoids the problem of tangled and knotted hose. Commonly available are garden expandable hoses, garden hose reel and coil hoses.


    • Storage with the help of tools

    You want to use your hose with great ease every time, but are tired of tidying it up, you can do so with the help of a hose reel, trolley or wall mounted bracket to keep your hose neatly wound and ready for use.


    • Putting it in a good environment

    When using a hose, avoid sharp turns in one part of the hose to prevent kinking of the hose. Try to keep the water hose as flat and straight as possible when using it.

    Union Booster’s Proposal

    • Swivel Hose Fittings

    The use of swivel joints allows the hose to rotate freely and prevents twisting.


    • Expandable Garden Hose/ Garden Hose Reel

    Try other types of garden hoses that are more efficient, easier and more convenient to use. But at the same time, they are not as durable as traditional water hoses. These hoses are currently hot on the market and largely solve the watering needs of urban flat housing families and save storage space.
