I am a householder installing a replacement water softener and would like to get a good water flow through the hoses and connectors.
Ideally, I would like to use 3/4" hoses with 3/4" elbow (90 degree) threaded connectors that do not reduce the water flow. The only connectors I can find have a small hole - I would like to get full bore flow.
If not 3/4" hoses, at least 3/4" connectors with full bore that I can fit to the usual washing machine type hoses.
Please does anyone know where I can get such hoses and / or connectors?
 
Stick to the MI`s and do what they say.
Thanks for the advice, but the instructions do not specify any hoses or connectors. They just say connect to water supply. I spoke to their technical bloke who said it is OK to do as I am suggesting, their water softener will take the flow.

Thanks, Chalked. I did find those hoses during my own Googling (!) but didn't know whether the connectors reduced the flow. Perhaps best if I ring them during office hours.
I would only need the 900mm hoses. Is £45 really a good price? Seems a helluva lot!
 
Most water softner manufacturers can supply a a high flow kit which softner do you have ?

Ideal Logic 24, Previous problem was that the hot water was only cold or barely warm if the heating was in use. If heating was off and boiler cold then would get hot water most of the time. Changing the flow cartridge about 2 years ago (when I moved in) solved this problem enough to suffer it as...
