Blower duct hose?
Does anyone know a place to get quality blower duct hose? The stuff I see around has been not much better then a dryer hose. I was hoping some one makes a better more heavy duty hose.
Thanks
Jon

If you want best quality and don't mind the price (it's expensive) use Aeroduct or more commonly known as scat tubing. I use it all the time for aircraft heater duct. It's fuel resistant, fire resistant, and will last forever. I plan on replacing my ducting with it in the fall. Look at chiefaircraft.com and search for "scat tubing"

Either 3" or 4" duct. As far as USCG approved goes, I have no idea. The blower motors have to be approved but the tubing is anyone's guess. All I know is scat tubing is FAA approved and everyone says my boat "flies" across the water........ gotta be good enough

It's not cheap, but you won't have to keep replacing it. Mine was 3 years old and was like new. You can get it by the foot here:

Of you can order a box from a supplier (Like Paxton or Land N Sea) for lots less.
