What about filters?

A filter between the heated hose and applicator head guarantees safe and efficient operation without downtime.  It prevents contaminants such as foreign particles or deposits of adhesive residues from reaching the nozzles. 

Over years of operation, deposits can form in the heated hoses.  They occasionally flake off and cause blocked nozzles.  Filter cartridges are particularly recommended for older systems or dusty environments.
