I have a 200' hose. Could I wind up 100' remove it from the winder and then wind the rest of the hose up and have two circles of hose?

I hope this is not joke. You could wind up 100 feet of hose, then carefully remove half of the reel assembly, at which point the wound up hose coils will want to fall off from the hub. Provided, that you can slide off the hose coils, place it on the ground. Now you have to reattach half the reel and continue with the other 100 feet. After the reel is full, you'll need to take half the reel off again to remove the hose coils. Why would you want to do this?

Actually, if wound very carefully (which I do) the reel can hold 125 feet of 5/8" diameter hose such as Wal*Mart sells: NeverKink Heavy Duty Ultra Flexible Series 2000. Hoses can vary in actual outside diameter even if they are rated 1/2", 5/8" or 3/4". If your hose is 1/2" and light duty, this reel MIGHT hold it if would very carefully, but I doubt it.

I have a 100ft hose in it with room to spare. It's a great hose reel at a steal of a price. I bought a second one.

Hi Jessica,Unfortunately you would have to buy another hose. I am not too happy with my prior investment of this wand after sending so much money on the wide track rug doctor. Furthermore, I can not find the hose for this wand anywhere online!!! Do not buy this wand!!!Regards

HiThe winder is designed for regular hose and that is the type that I use. It has an apparatus that actually moves back and forth across the hose drum as the drum rotates winding up the hose evenly across the drum. I expect that a flat hose will be rolled on the drum as a round one would but the capacity probably will be greater. The only problem I would expect to see would be keeping the hose from rotating as it is rolled up.Good luck with this one.

if you are talking about hose lenght mine does well over 100 feet, you have to look at your hose size also..

Hi,Thank you for your question!The only way to do this would be to remove the intake screen to reach the actual hose intake. If you have any other questions please let us know!Thank you,MackensieCustomer ServiceThe Pond & Garden Wholesalers

Yes, absolutely. It's like a vacuum cleaner hose, where you can put in the middle piece to extend it or totally leave it out and just have the two pieces together as a shorter unit. Go for it.

The two ends of the hose will screw together. I only own one, so I have not tried connecting two different hoses. It appears that they can be connected together, but I cannot test if there is a loss of pressure due to the distance, or if there is a safety issue with a connection in the middle of the hoses.

I have the 150BT. If it's the same size hose, I used a 2 inch rubber coupler that had a pinch fastener on each size. Was like $3 from Home Depot (maybe in plumbing?). You can squeeze the flexible coupler ends into the end of the blower, and the other end squeezed into the end of the plastic blower kit. Then I duct taped like heck. Kind of a pain to assemble and disassemble, but well worth it for the job it did. Got rid of stuff in the gutters that my hands just moved around. Not as good as a system made for your model, but I am still very happy with my purchase.

Yes!!! I have two of these. I use one for an air hose and one for 100 ft of 10 gauge extension cord. I don't use the garden hose fittings. I just feed the hose in and out of the side and then I start winding. They work like a dream. I have had several air hose reels and this beats them all. It only takes a couple of moments and 200 ft of hose is all wound up.

Take approximately 20 feet of line and bend it in half 10 ft. Hook it on to spool and wind in the same direction. Feed the two ends through the two holes provided, taking care not to pinch the line. Make sure that the cover cap is screwed in properly. Thats all there is to it.

sorry i don't know. my hose is only 25 feet long and i only have two hoses.

Not hard at all, the large spool rotates very easily, if you have a lot of heavy hose be sure to drain the hose as you wind to shed a lot of weight. Unwinding is very easy just position the spool to the side you are unwinding from and walk with the end of the hose, you can adjust the unwind action with the clutch so it does not unroll too quickly.

Yes, the hose reel is removable. I'm using a 50' regular hose. Since the pocket hose is so much smaller, I'm guessing a 100 ft will fit the pot, although I can't be absolutely sure. It won't blow away because the hose is connected to your water supply. It will move a bit as you pull the hose out, but this isn't a big deal. Maybe not so much since you have a lighter hose. I love this pot. Hose rewinds very easily.

Make sure you keep the hose straight when it's rewinding. If you don't (and it kinks going around the rewinder) it will cause a problem pulling it out and MAY do damage to your hose also.

I'm not entirely sure if another kit could be added. I think it is likely, as we have a similar set up that serves about 100feet in length. There is the risk of loosing pressure at the far end of the second kit hose.

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.
