 1、 Avoid direct sunlight and high temperature environments

Storage location selection: Rubber drainage hoses should be placed in a well ventilated and dry place, away from direct sunlight and high temperature environments. Sunlight and high temperature can cause the aging and deformation of hoses, reducing their service life.
Avoid damp environments: Rubber drainage hoses are prone to moisture, so they should be stored in damp environments as much as possible, such as bathrooms or kitchens. You can choose to store it indoors in a well ventilated area or use moisture-proof bags for packaging.
Avoid temperature changes: Rubber materials are sensitive to temperature changes, and high or low temperatures can cause damage to them. Therefore, it is recommended to store the hose in a stable environment at room temperature to avoid frequent temperature changes.
2、 Prevent squeezing and friction
Correct placement: When storing rubber drainage hoses, they should be placed flat or vertically to avoid prolonged bending or twisting. This can reduce the pressure and stress on the internal structure of the hose, and extend its service life.
Fixed support: If it is necessary to hang and store the hose, a bracket or other support can be used to secure it to prevent damage caused by compression or friction of the hose.
Avoid contact with other objects: Rubber drainage hoses are prone to friction and compression from other objects, so they should be stored to avoid contact with sharp objects, rough surfaces, or other heavy objects. This can protect the surface of the hose from scratches and damage.
3、 Regular inspection and maintenance
Appearance inspection: Regularly inspect the appearance of rubber drainage hoses for obvious signs of damage or wear, such as cracks, deformation, or discoloration. If there are any abnormal situations, they should be replaced or repaired in a timely manner.
Pressure testing: Regularly conduct pressure testing to verify the sealing performance of the hose. You can connect the hose to the water source, gradually increase the water pressure, and observe for any leaks. If water leakage is found, it should be repaired or replaced in a timely manner.
Regular maintenance: Regularly clean the surface of the hose to remove dirt and sediment, and keep it dry and clean. You can use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently wipe the surface, but avoid excessive force or the use of chemical cleaning agents. In addition, specialized rubber maintenance agents can also be used for maintenance to extend the service life of the hose.
In summary, the correct storage methods for rubber drainage hoses include avoiding direct sunlight and high temperature environments, preventing compression and friction, and regular inspection and maintenance. By reasonable storage and maintenance, the service life of the hose can be extended and its normal working effect can be ensured.
