Anybody know of a hose attachment that fits the pressure relief valve for a Pentair FNS plus 60?

Picture included. When I use this valve, water soaks the house stucco. Trying to avoid that and collect the water in a bucket for plants.

Thanks!

Next time you open the filter to clean it, rotate the top lid so that the discharge is not facing your stucco.

I haven’t measured the nipple size but I’m guessing a piece of 1/2” rubber or polypropylene soft tubing will work. You can get it at any ACE hardware store. You’ll just need to buy a hose clamp to hold it onto the discharge nipple.

I purchased a hose from Lowe's. Unfortunately I do not have the info on which size but I think 1 inch OD - I remember measuring the diameter of the nozzle and then measuring the ID of various hoses. There is a section of hoses used for various appliances. I think mine is 10 ft. I remember it being a little pricey as I think it was for a high pressure rating but it is durable and been in place over a year with no issues. See picture. I put a zip tie on it to hold it in place. I cut the zip tie when I need to clean the DE filter and replace it.

Yes...The tubing is 3/4" inner diameter and 1" outer diameter. Mine is clear, but the braided stuff is a bit less...
