Flexi Hoses – the surprise risk
Water damage is commonly associated with natural disasters such as storms and flooding. However, internal water damage in Australian homes is now more prevalent than break-ins and fire incidents. Despite being a costly risk, it is often overlooked by homeowners.
One culprit of water damage is the Flexi Hose, a relatively new replacement for copper piping in modern homes.
Unfortunately, many people are unaware that these hoses have a limited lifespan of 5 to 10 years, making them a ticking time bomb in households.

Flexi Hose Replacement

What are flexi-hoses?
Flexible rubber pipes known as Flexi Hoses are commonly utilizsd to connect water mains to various household appliances and fixtures, including washing machines, dishwashers, plumbed refrigerators, sinks, and basins. These hoses, unlike the traditional copper pipes, have a much shorter lifespan and are composed of flexible rubber material with an outer layer of braided stainless steel.

Maintenance and Prevention
To avoid burst Flexi Hoses due to their limited lifespan, it is recommended to regularly inspect them throughout your home and keep track of their installation dates.
During inspection, check for any rust or fraying of the metal layer on the outer surface of the hose. Additionally, feel for moisture along the hose, as this can cause quicker wear and tear.
It is advisable to have a professional handle the replacement process as incorrect installation can result in a shorter lifespan and premature hose failure. Attempting to replace the hoses yourself to save money is not worth the potential risks and expenses associated with water damage.
