Default Coil Hoses - revisited

Well, after much ado I finally broke down and ordered some reinforced
polyurethane coil hoses today. Here's hoping they last me many years.

Better than the nylon ones, which harden and crack in a year or two.

Indeed they do. If anyone would like free samples of nylon ones that
have failed..I have several hundred feet of bits and pieces available
for simply postage.

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie

Maybe what it's used for and how it's stored. My nylon one is about 18
years old an no sign of any problems.

Thats entirely possible. My environment runs from the mid 30Fs to
110F, with humidity being in the 80% during the cool months and down
around 18% in the hot months

It also depends a lot upon how much moisture is in your air supply.
Nylon is notoriously capable of absorbing water, and doing so changes its
mechanical characteristics.
