Hello,

I have purchased a used Aqualung Balance (M/L) BCD and Libra (M) for my wife. They both came with the upgraded Airsource 3 installed on them but with no LP inflator hose.

What length hose is recommended for both to keep a streamline profile? Can I run the upgraded Miflex hose with them?

Thanks!!
 
Hose length kinda depends on the routing and size of the person.
Do you have a tank and reg set up you can use guess the length of hose ?
I use 24" inflator hoses on my set up.

Standard is 24in. Take it into your LDS and try a couple different sizes to see what works.

I started using double braided hoses and I really line them. They cheaper than Milfex and way more durable than rubber.

One more question?

Is there a certain type of hose connection I need for my Aqualung Airsource 3? It has a quick connector type connection on it.
