Any reason I could not use a longer leader hose? I would connect regular hose to the leader hose, and then connect to the house.

We have ours on a raised patio, to get there we ran a long hose from the faucet under a deck and up to the patio. This makes our leader 25 feet or more. Works fine.

The hose fittings are sized for standard regulators, if you wanted to attach it to a longer hose you would need a set of double male couplings such as these: Hot Max 24131 Oxy-Acetylene Hose Coupler/Union Set, 1/4-Inch or 3/16-Inch

There is a long leader hose without shutoff valve. You can add one of these easily by purchasing at Lowes or Home Depot. (I did)

This is ment to be plumbed in to the main line. I'm sure its possible to use hoses given the right adaptors.

Take the AP-20 and a small piece of the hose you want to use. Take it to the local hardware store and let them figure it out for you.....

I've never tried, but I don't see why two couldn't be connected. There would be a straight area between the coils where the connectors are. Be aware that although this is a 50-foot hose, the coil doesn't quite unwind all the way and you will have less than 100 feet if you combine them. Also, have you considered how you will store it? I keep my one hose coiled up in a large flower pot and there is very little tangle, but I'm not sure how I would keep a double unless it were laid out straight behind the shrubbery.

No because we have a bigger hose on it and it works perfect, it shouldn't be a problem at all.

Yes you can. The suction is not affected by a longer hose, the longer hose will let you route the run off further away from the pumped area.

You'd need a fitting adapter, maybe different regulator. And the length of hose supplied may be a bit restrictive w/a heavy canister.

A long one. I bought another hose as long as the one that came with it and put them together and there was no difference in the spray. My house is three and half a stories on a hill and I was all the way to the top with the two hoses coupled with no problem at all. This machine worked very well for me. One tip though, I bought the extended prayer tip and that was really necessary allows you not to move the ladder nearly as often.

Yes you could, BUT it busted yesterday. I think these hoses are doomed. This hose was my last one to purchase, unless they make significant improvements.

Get a long power extension cord very light easy to use. A long hose would probably need larger I.D. the heavy hose not to good.

I don't know. I haven't come across any situation where I need a longer hose. The hose it comes with is long enough for all of my uses. Its a great product. Its easy to use and its very powerful.

Yep that is what we use. But it is less portable when hooked up, obviously. Just don't forget to get the extender hose.

Buy the larger system as water pressure will always vary, and I'd rather err on the high side than the lower. It's almost impossible to keep the pressure consistent and very easy to blow out the fittings...unless you purchase a water pressure regulator. Then it really doesn't matter whether you use the larger or smaller hose...

I'm guessing it would depend on the condition, and the fitment. Just saying, if the hose is in serviceable condition and it fits, I can't see why you wouldn't be able to use it. But then again, I'm not a professional. You should maybe speak to your local Home Depot, or other professionals.

The size of air hose is up to you. You need to provide the standard 1/4" NPT connector or I guess any other fitting you prefer.
