Hi Brian! I had a sneaking suspicion that article from the Dell guy would pop up. I was more hoping to find a UL standard for water hoses. UL and CSA don't seem to have any standards that cover just plain water hose. I thought something might turn up in the plumbing department, but no such luck. They have standards for LP gas hoses, hard-use firefighting hoses, high pressure air hose, flexible metal hose, etc. All of these have requirements way too strict to allow passage of a simple water hose operating at relatively low pressures. I was hoping they would have a basic hose standard just simply covering working pressure, construction, and maybe a flammability test. I am currently trying to talk UL into agreeing to write a construction report and doing a flame test. Part of my problem is that the hose is a non-homogeneous product, so we're trying to apply VW-1 from UL 1581, which all agencies are heistant to apply to a non-cabling product.
