Bilge Blower vent tubing options
 

Looking to replace my bilge blower tubing.

I really don't like the wire wound dryer tube type options. Is there a more substantial type available that works well?

brake cooling hose for race cars. I know they make it in 3" not sure about 4' but it comes in different colors and holds up better.

Perfect!

I'll check it out.

4" silicone impregnated woven fiberglass double wire wound.

It's about $10/ft.

Thr marine crap is about $1/ft. But not much is used, so the overall expense is low, and will last far longer.

I was just going to suggest brake cooling hose as well. You can find it in orange and black, and sometimes few other colors.

Dryer hose is 4" in most cases. 3" has been used as bilge blower venting on from daily cruisers to mega yachts for a thousand years. Not sure why you would need a high temp break hose when all you are doing is moving ambient air temps?

It's not about the high temp. It's about finding a quality product that won't fall apart in a couple years, and/or look like crap in no time.

Why not put in some metal dryer hose. That looks cool, won't rot and you can rinse it off if it gets dirty. Probably not rust proof though.

How about PVC waste pipe. In Europe we have 3" and 4" system.
