Using an exhaust hose that's not capable of handling application demands can result in safety hazards, increased expenses, hose failure, and lost production time. Crushproof hoses are specifically formulated to handle up to 600°F temperatures making them more heat resistant than standard hoses. They're also more effective than metal or plastic hoses for several reasons, including:
✓ Very affordable
✓ Doesn't require a fan to exhaust
✓ More flexible than standard hoses
✓ Crushproof, so even the heaviest vehicles won't break it |
✓ Adaptable application based on the building layout
✓ Easy and efficient connections without additional nuts and bolts
✓ Plenty of unique configurations to choose from |
5 Reasons to Use a Crushproof Exhaust Hose
In the auto industry, exposure to carbon monoxide (CO) poses a serious risk in garages, repair shops, auto dealerships, and any facility where vehicles run indoors. While ventilating by opening doors and windows can help, it’s not enough to ensure the air is clean and breathable.
To effectively remove harmful exhaust from the workspace, business owners and hobbyists rely on reliable, adaptable systems. Crushproof exhaust hoses offer exceptional performance—here are five reasons why they're the best choice:
1. Crushproof Durability
Made of rubber and designed without a wire helix, crushproof exhaust hoses retain their shape even when driven over by heavy vehicles or stepped on.
2. Superior Effectiveness
Crushproof hoses outperform metal or plastic alternatives by offering better heat resistance and greater flexibility, ensuring more efficient exhaust removal.
3. Versatile Adaptability
Whether overhead, underground, or above the floor, crushproof hoses easily adapt to any system and application, making them a versatile solution for all environments.
4. Easy to Use
With simple connections, crushproof hoses seamlessly attach to additional hoses or adaptors without the need for specialized fittings or tools.
5. Cost-Effective
Rather than replacing an entire tubing system, crushproof hoses can serve as a direct, cost-effective replacement for standard garage exhaust hoses, saving both time and money.
When dealing with high-temperature applications it is crucial to implement a garage exhaust removal system that can manage heat absorption. Without the proper equipment, heat can permanently damage a ventilation structure slowing down production and presenting health risks.
Garage Exhaust is extremely dangerous and potentially deadly. It’s recommended that any system is properly engineered to meet the specifications of your application. When using a crushproof hose for the first time, watch closely to ensure that the exhaust is exiting the building as designed. If you notice any exhaust coming back into the working area, the hose is not being used properly. Turn the vehicle off immediately and call an expert.
Note: The tailpipe should always be smaller than the crushproof hose by about 1/2" and used with the proper tailpipe adapter. This will create a cooler temperature inside the hose as ambient shop air is captured in with exhaust fumes.
