Flexible blower hose
The Flexaust Co.'s STO-SACK is designed for ventilation, drying, dehumidification, and temporary heat or air
The Flexaust STO-SACK is a rugged blower hose that is designed for moving high volumes of air using any blower, and comes in a handy, self-contained storage pouch that is easy to handle.

Convenient to carry and transport, the blower hose is bright yellow, and is protected by an external wear strip. Mildew-resistant, the hose comes in 6-in. to 24-in. I.D. sizes, and standard 15-ft. and 25-ft. lengths. Special lengths and commercial and military colors are offered.
