You need to take care of jetting hoses whether they are used for industrial or residential cleaning. Failures in these hoses can lead to costly damage, and even potential injury.
When not in use, hoses should be completely drained and thoroughly dried before they are stored. They should be kept out of direct sunlight and ozone.

Proper care of your cleaning water jet hose will extend its life expectancy. Not only should you keep the hose free from debris such as droopy lawn clippings, but you should also be sure to hang it up off the ground so moisture doesn't seep in through the cracks and creases. A magnetic hose strap is a good idea. You'll also want to keep a close eye on the nozzle and be sure it's not inadvertently overheating or leaking. Make sure you only use the right fluids for your hose. The wrong type of cleaning solvent can cause serious damage and costly repairs.
Causes of water jet hose breaks
The main water supply line running between your washing machine's wall and your water hose is called a water hose. It can break or leak, causing flooding in your laundry room and the surrounding area.
The cause of the break can be normal wear and tear on the hose, or the pressure that is sent through the hose when a cycle completes. This pressure is called a "water hammer."
Rubber hoses are more susceptible to breaking than stainless steel braided hoses. Poor water quality can cause a hose to burst, increasing the risk of it happening.
Faulty installation is another common cause of a hose breaking. Faulty installation can be caused by incorrectly fitted connectors, loose attachments or twisted lines.
There are steps you can take that will prevent these failures from happening and decrease the chance of a hose breaking. You should replace your hoses every 3 to 5 years.
A properly installed hose can last up to 20+ years depending on its environment and application. You should be aware of signs of wear and deterioration, such as blisters or cracks, discoloration, or unravelling. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's time to replace your hoses. You can avoid a hose failure by keeping them in good shape.
