CA 2140433

The retractable conduit of the invention comprises a sheet of memory-set polyester (4) formed as a conduit. To manufac- ture the memory-set strip, the polyester sheet (4) is wound into the desired retracted, e.g. coiled, position, heated and cooled. After this process the sheet of polyester will automatically assume the retracted position. In one embodiment, suitable as a splashblock, the distal end (47) of the polyester sheet (46) is wider than the end (48) attachable to a downspout (49). In another embodiment the polyester sheet (4) is sheathed in an elongated polyethylene tube (2), to form a retractable hose. in a preferred embodiment, the distal end of the hose is supported on a spool ( 14) which will roll along the ground as the hose is wound and unwound to fur- ther ensure that the hose retracts properly. The tube can also be provided with holes ( l8) to act as a sprinkler if desired.
