Product details
Thirty feet is the shortest Rapid Flex length Hide A Hose offers, and part HS402153P is that hose. Like the rest of the line it is made from a soft flexible nylon that resists scratching and needs no hose sock over it, so nothing is fitted around this hose before it goes into the wall.
Two things separate Rapid Flex from the older sock hoses. The tubing runs a larger diameter, which raises airflow by 20 to 30 percent, and the softer material pulls out and retracts with noticeably less effort. A mini cuff on the end, the blue 1-3/8 inch HS5000H5, lets tools connect straight to the hose.
A 30 foot run suits an install with inlets placed close to the rooms they serve. Match the length to the hose already in the wall rather than to how far you wish it would reach, since the tubing run and the valve position were sized together at installation.
When suction drops, lay the full length out straight and check it end to end. A hairline split can stay closed while the hose is coiled inside the tubing and open only once it is stretched to working length, which is exactly when the seal matters.
