I'll x-post to the home improvement board, but I'm looking to replace my Polaris pool cleaner hose. Is this a standard hose type I can purchase (I live in the DFW area). I feel like it's something I could find via a plumbing supply company.

This. Pool supply places are the ultimate ripoff. Lowe's and Home Depot have some choices usually as well.

Never pay retail for pool supplies. Online.

I don't buy from the supply houses. I guess my question is whether I can get the hose from another source. I was curious if anyone found another source besides buying the hose sold as pool equipment.

I think a Polaris hose is more than just a hose. It has a few bearings/joints that allow it to twist and turn. I suppose you could scavenge those off your old hose though.

Bingo!

I've actually got a couple spare joints. I found a box of 10 for $5 at a garage sale awhile back that were still new. The floats are still good and can be reused.
