My only concern with the water heater hose would be is the
working pressure.  The spec sheet indicates the maximum
working pressure is 125 PSI.

I believe all of my air hoses are rated for at least
200 PSI for the cheap ones - more for my good hoses.
The burst pressure is at least three times that amount.
