[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1478132, member: 17956"] Its all 1/2 inch black flexable hose. Same stuff you plumb a sprayer with. If the temperature is going to dip below 25, I drain it out a probably 35' hose leading away from the barn. It has never failed to not generate enough suction to to siphon out the system. My kids have forget to siphon it it a few times, and it froze, but nothing busted. Picks up like 12' of fall, coming down from the rafters, and then runs down about an 18" to 2' drop leading away from the stable. 10 months out of the year, I have the drain hose discounected. I actually use it for a water hose the rest of the year. I think the key is the hose, and the size. Dumb luck is how I perfected it BTW. [/QUOTE]
