There are basically two categories of connectors that can be used in WFP:




1. Garden hose type connectors such as the ubiquitous Hozelock range. 1. Garden hose type connectors such as the ubiquitous Hozelock range.

Which do we recommend and why? Which do we recommend and why?
Whilst Hozelock type connectors have their place in a system this is usually best left to using them to connect your pump outlet hose to your hose reel.

The downside of Hozelock type of connectors on your pole connections is that they wear out very quickly and are prone to jamming on or disconnecting at the wrong time. This can be very frustrating and time consuming.

We would always recommend one of the metal bayonet type fittings. We supply two types, EZ-Snap and Pro. Both offer superior performance to hozelock type connectors, our personal favourite is the EZ-Snap connector due to its ease of use and small size.
