The hose for the Zodiac T5 Duo (that came with the house/pool when I bought it) is starting to show some deterioration from the sun/water. Its still working fine, but I thought I'd look into replacing it before it went bad...
Then I discovered how expensive the hose sections seem to be. I haven't checked locally yet (the Leslie's web site says $25/section and I need 10), but I assume the range of prices I see online are indicative.
So far it appears this hose will be at least $145 (assuming the MX8 hose works) and possibly as much as $250.
At $250 I could just buy a new T5 with a new leaf canister, hose and all.
Am I missing a more reasonable alternative? I'd actually prefer a single section hose...not all these click-together sections.
