APC Hose 4' White – Replacement Pool Vacuum Hose | APC204
Reliable Performance in Every Connection
Keep your pool cleaner performing at its best with the APC 4-Foot White Replacement Pool Vacuum Hose (APC204)—a durable, high-quality connector designed for strength, flexibility, and perfect water flow.
Whether you’re replacing a damaged hose or extending your existing cleaner line, this 4-foot white APC hose is built to maintain airtight suction, prevent leaks, and resist UV and chemical exposure. Designed for professional and residential pool systems alike, it’s the ideal choice for maintaining smooth, efficient vacuum performance.
Built for Professional-Grade Durability
The APC204 hose features reinforced, crush-resistant construction that holds its shape under suction pressure. Each section is precision-molded from high-grade polyethylene for lasting flexibility and toughness, even under constant sun exposure or chlorine contact.
Engineered to meet or exceed OEM standards, it connects seamlessly with most automatic and manual pool vacuums—ensuring a secure fit and reliable performance throughout the cleaning cycle.
4-Foot Length for Versatile Configurations
The 4-foot length offers the flexibility you need for system customization. Use it to:
-
Replace damaged sections of existing cleaner hose lines.
-
Extend hose reach for deeper or larger pools.
-
Maintain even suction pressure by keeping hose sections uniform in length.
This modular size makes it easy to mix, match, and replace sections as needed—helping you save time and money compared to replacing a full hose set.
Secure, Leak-Free Connections
Each end of the APC White Vacuum Hose features precision-molded cuffs for a snug, airtight fit. The smooth inner bore promotes efficient water flow, while the threaded ends ensure a tight seal with most standard vacuum fittings.
This leak-free connection helps preserve suction strength, improving cleaner performance and reducing wear on your pump and filtration system.
Flexible Yet Strong Design
Unlike rigid hoses that can crack or kink, the APC 4' Hose maintains flexibility without collapsing under suction. Its corrugated outer wall provides extra grip and structural strength, allowing smooth maneuvering around pool corners and obstacles.
This design not only ensures long service life but also prevents performance drop-offs caused by hose deformation.
UV and Chemical Resistant
The white UV-stabilized polymer resists fading, brittleness, and chlorine damage. Even under harsh sunlight or heavy sanitizer use, this hose retains its color, shape, and flexibility season after season.
It’s built to withstand the real-world conditions of commercial and residential pools without degrading or leaking over time.
Compatible with Most Pool Vacuum Systems
The APC204 White Hose is universally compatible with many leading pool vacuum systems, including:
-
Polaris®, Hayward®, and Pentair® automatic cleaners
-
Suction-side pool vacuums
-
Manual vacuum heads and skimmer plates
-
Standard 1.5-inch vacuum fittings
Each section interlocks securely with other APC hoses or standard pool vacuum tubing, allowing you to expand or repair your system with ease.
Ideal for Service Technicians & DIY Pool Owners
Pool professionals rely on APC hoses for their consistent performance, durability, and easy interchangeability. Whether you’re maintaining multiple pools or replacing a single section at home, the APC204 hose delivers reliable suction and easy installation.
It’s also perfect for backyard pool owners who want a professional-grade part that installs quickly and lasts longer than generic alternatives.
Easy Installation
Installing the APC 4' Hose takes just seconds:
-
Remove the worn or damaged section of your existing hose.
-
Align the cuffs of your new hose with the adjoining sections.
-
Twist and push until snug for an airtight fit.
-
Test the vacuum for full suction and adjust as needed.
No special tools or adhesives are required—just a tight, secure connection for instant performance.
How Proper Hose Maintenance Improves Pool Efficiency
Replacing damaged or leaking hose sections can dramatically improve suction and cleaning efficiency. A secure, undamaged hose helps:
-
Reduce air leaks that strain the pump motor.
-
Maintain strong suction for consistent debris removal.
-
Lower energy use by improving system performance.
-
Extend cleaner lifespan by reducing stress on mechanical parts.
That’s why pros always keep spare APC hose sections on hand—it’s a simple upgrade with big performance payoffs.
