Flexaust Genesis STM Polyurethane Duct Hose
Flexaust's Genesis STM uses a polyurethane corrugated construction that delivers exceptional abrasion and chemical resistance while maintaining low weight and strong flex-recovery, making it best-in-class for stable ventilation systems that require long service life. Compared with the cheaper PVC and clear-suction options in this list, the Genesis STM trades a modest price premium for superior durability and longer replacement intervals, reducing total lifecycle cost in high-wear barn and stall environments.

Kanaflex 100 CL Clear PVC Suction Hose
Kanaflex 100 CL is a clear PVC corrugated suction hose designed for visual monitoring of airflow and particulates, which is a practical advantage in stables where blockages or bedding uptake must be observed quickly. Financially it sits near the lower end of the price spectrum like the Novaflex 4200, but its transparency and suction-capable construction make it uniquely useful for maintenance-heavy ventilation runs despite offering lower abrasion resistance than polyurethane and thermoplastic rubber options.
