tubing on LiterMeter

I am using a liter meter for top off and constant WC. I was wondering how long the hose will last, and if you have to use their replacement hose or can you just buy some neoprene tubing? I didn't know if it was a special size, or if the ends were already on it?

TIA Derek

It should last for quite a long time -- certainly longer than any other pump in the industry.

You absolutely cannot use anything other than our tubing. It is specially modified by us for the pump and the pump is designed around it.

Please confirm your part number on your Liter Meter accessory. We use that to determine exactly which tubing kit is required as we are now on Gen-6, and previous generations can b updated to our long life version if we know what pump you are starting with...

Long life you ask? How about 30,000+ gallons before the brushes in the motor became worn out.
