LILIE native hot drinking water hose 10 x 18 mm 5 m - braided, white with red stripe

The LILIE native 10 x 18 mm hose is a line for hot drinking water in campervans, caravans and boats. It is made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with an embedded textile braid, contains no PVC and does not give the water any odour or taste. The white colour with a red stripe makes it easy to tell the hot line from the cold line.

Why a braided hose

The textile braid inside the wall keeps the hose in shape under high pressure and stops it from kinking at bends. The minimum bend radius is 35 mm, so the line can be routed tightly in cabinets and under the floor without extra elbows.

The 4 mm wall dampens noise and vibration from the diaphragm pump, which you will appreciate at night. The material is odour and taste neutral and limits algae and germ growth in the system.

For hot water

The hose is certified for hot drinking water to DIN 2001-2 up to +60°C, and according to the manufacturer it works up to +95°C and withstands 100°C short-term. This makes it suitable for direct connection to the water heater without extra protective lines.

The hose has been tested to KTW and DVGW W270 and passed the DVGW VP549 type test for temporary drinking water transport. It is printed along its full length with LILIE native - KTW/DVGW - W270.

Installation

Cut the hose square, ideally with a hose cutter. Push it fully onto the barbed end of a 10 mm fitting and secure it with an 18 mm spring band clamp. LILIE WeißGELB fittings are dimensioned to match LILIE native hoses.

After fitting, check for leaks under pressure and flush the system. Before winter, drain the water so that freezing water cannot damage the pump and fittings.
