In the play A Death of a Salesman why is it so bad that Willy keeps a rubber tubing behind the heater?
Presumably he plans to use it to breathe the natural gas that fuels the heater. It's a visible reminder of his suicidal tendencies; it's always there whether or not he's thinking of suicide at the moment.
What is the significance of the rubber hose in the play 'Death of a Salesman'?
Okay, I just read this play. The rubber hose was to be used by Willy to commit suicide, therefore it represents his despair with his current situation. The car represents his profession as a traveling salesman. Remember, that he says that one of his colleagues died "the death of a salesman" and in a sense so does Willy because he dies in his car. The seeds are a symbol for Willy's desire to "cultivate his garden," to have a healthy and prosperous household. Finally, the tape recorder is a symbol of Willy's old age and his inability to keep up with new technologies and to be a successful salesman. Also, remember that Howard says he spends $150 on it, a sum of money that far exceeds what Willy was asking for per week or what he needs to pay the insurance on his house.
