The non-return valve reduces subsequent backflow from the suction line but does not replace the prescribed start-up procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the strainer also filter fine sand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strainer retains coarse contaminants. No specific fine filtration is stated. For sandy water, provide a pre-filter suitable for the pump and do not place the strainer directly on muddy sediment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I route the spiral hose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoute it without tension, crushing or tight bends. During operation, the strainer must remain sufficiently submerged to prevent air being drawn in. The connection to the pump must be airtight on the suction side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat should I do before frost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompletely drain the hose, valve and strainer and store them in a protected place. The hose material’s temperature range does not prevent damage from residual water freezing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bradas","offers":[{"title":"4 m","offer_id":65817629000029,"sku":"3950-4","price":17.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7 m","offer_id":65819268055389,"sku":"3950-7","price":24.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1068\/5520\/3165\/files\/schlauch7m-12298490.jpg?v=1788698200"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1068\/5520\/3165\/collections\/terrain-kat-schlauche-sq-750_b1bca731-5810-426d-88e2-09c2cb062526.jpg?v=1789139038","url":"https:\/\/brixoro.eu\/en-lt\/collections\/suction-hoses.oembed","provider":"Brixoro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
