If you have said yes, you have a ticking time bomb waiting to flood your home!
Protect Your Home and Your Wallet with Essential Flexible water Hose Upgrades and replacements. Most Flexible water hoses only have a warranty of 5 years! Unlike the flexible water hoses we install which have a 15 YEAR Rust Resistance Warranty and use high strength, non-metallic, non-corrosive braiding similar to kevlar material used in bulletproof vests. Because they are not metal they will never rust, even when in extended contact with water-borne chemicals such as chlorine.Â
According to Suncorp Insurance ” In 2022, Suncorp Insurance homes claims data revealed that flexi-hoses were responsible for almost one in ten water damage claims in Australian households, and when it came to cost, claims involving flexi-hoses were more than double the cost of damage from a regular burst pipe. One in four have experienced water damage, eight in ten don’t know how to prevent it”
Flexible water hose connections, commonly used under sinks and connected to appliances, are convenient but not immune to wear and tear. Over time, these hoses can degrade, leading to unexpected and potentially devastating bursts.
The impact of a burst flexible water hose isn’t just a minor inconvenience. According to industry studies and insurance data, these incidents are among the top causes of water damage in homes. A single burst can unleash a flood of water, damaging floors, walls, and personal belongings in a matter of minutes. The cost of repairs can be astronomical, not to mention the potential increase in your insurance premiums.
However, the real kicker comes from the insurance industry itself. Many policies have specific clauses related to preventable damages. Insurers are increasingly scrutinising claims related to burst hoses, with some policies requiring regular maintenance or upgrades to newer, more durable materials as a condition of coverage. This means that in the event of a burst hose, you could be left facing not just the damage but also the financial burden if your policy is deemed void due to negligence.
