Always remember that a correctly functioning cooling system is all about flow...airflow through the radiator as well as coolant flow through the system.
If your lower hose is leaking, fix that first. Leaking coolant can mean insufficient coolant flow to transfer the heat from the engine to the radiator. Good deal on replacing the thermostat.
