Stainless Steel Water Hose Installation

While your home has a main water supply line, many other branches feed the appliances and fixtures throughout your home. Learn more about these water hoses and how our team can help you with installation and replacement today.

Stainless steel flexible water hoses are used throughout many different parts of the home to carry water to and from various fixtures and appliances. The most common purposes for these supply lines include:

Water hoses connect your appliances and fixtures to the water supply, allowing them to operate effectively. Of the options available, stainless steel supply lines have the most attractive appearance, making them ideal for exposed areas. At Metro Services HVAC, we will ensure you get the right line length and diameter for your application.

These tubes have two parts — an inner tube made from nylon or PVC and a braided, stainless steel outer portion. This setup produces a unique appearance, making it more appealing than tubes made from plastic. It also assists with corrosion resistance.

You can use a flexible hose for cold or hot supply lines. Flex hoses connect to a shutoff valve on the main water supply line instead of connecting directly to the main hose itself. One of the main reasons for this is to make repairs and replacements easier, as it allows a technician to isolate a single service area instead of shutting off water for the entire house.

Keeping your water supply lines in good condition is crucial to the operation of various household appliances. It also helps keep your plumbing system operational. The advantages of properly maintaining, repairing and replacing your lines include:

Many stainless steel flexible water tubes last around three to five years before they need to be replaced. However, their life span can vary depending on how often they are used and how well they are maintained. Stainless steel supply lines, in particular, often last much longer than PVC, nylon or other plastic tubes. Our technicians can help you determine if yours should be replaced and complete the process.

As a general rule of thumb, if you replace an appliance, you should replace the hoses as well. Signs you may need new lines include:
