Guys,
been having trouble with my vanguard ozone. Check valve was broken (as in in 1/2). Replaced check valve, but noticed very little suction at ozone end. Poked around, and found hose was kinked in 2 places. The hose is VERY soft, and easily kinks. I had some BFG fuel injector hose (never been used) in garage, and substituted that for the flimsy crap.
Question: I am assuming the ozone and acid byproducts deterioriated the hose, thus making it so supple. Does HS use a specia ozone resistantl hose? Or can my BFG hose (MUCH more robust, and impossible to kink) fulfill ozone duty?
Looking for a way to ensure HS Ozone III is producing up to spec. Any ideas other than smell?
Thanks!
