Do You use your Aussie hose when its warm?

Post by Jimm » Tue Apr 25, 2006 11:08 pm

Looks like we're finally going to get some warm weather around here this weekend. This has me wondering if those of you who have the Aussie heated hose find you still need to use it when during the warm/hot seasons. Id like to preserve the useful life of the hose by not using it unless neccessary..

We have air conditioning so I use my heated hose when the weather is warm.

I use my Aussie hose year round!
( Can't think of any reason to switch ? )

I only use mine when its cold - but I also have my humidifier set low. I find the air gets too hot for me when the weathers warm.

I've had the same responce as Sir C. With the heated hose the air gets too hot.

I've actually woken up feeling I was overheating from the very warm air - like I was marching thru a jungle.

It was great when it was chilly but now I'm thinking of a Cooled Hose.
