I use a 36" Coolflex lower rad hose as well. The convoluted metal of the hose gives a huge increase in conductive cooling surface area that rubber hose does not have. Once the ambient temperature is lower than the coolant flowing through the hose you will benefit from a bit of extra heat dissipation especially if you are using a significant length.
