Abstract
A fluid supply hose includes a hose body having a first end for connection to a fixture and a second end for connection to a water supply. The fluid supply hose includes a tubular cover formed of a heat-shrinkable, antifungal material, which is heat shrunk in place to cover at least a portion of the hose body. The cover could include a decorative exterior. A method of making a fluid supply hose involves inserting a fluid supply hose having a hose body, a first end for connection to a fixture, and a second end for connection to a water supply, into a heat-shrinkable, antifungal tubular cover. The cover is positioned over a portion of the supply hose, and heat is applied to the cover to heat shrink the cover in place to cover at least a portion of the supply hose body.
