sewer hose length

[Jz5g52]

New at this how often do you Need longer than 20 feet of sewer hose? Need to know if I need to purchase a 10 foot extension

[hockeyzebra27]

The most I have used is 20ft.

[WFD]

I can almost always get by with my 15ft....have 2, 5ft extensions if I need to add but have only needed it a couple times. Still good to have them on hand in case, cheap to buy.

[DreiHunde]

I've needed the 3rd 10' extension 3 times last year....I was glad I had the extra when needed!

I carry a 10 foot extension but I haven't had to use it. I have used my electrical cord extension and my extra water hose so I would suggest that you carry those. Better to have them than not.

Usually, if you can get close to one, then it's the others that need to be long. So I work to be close to the sewer and let the water and electric be long.

rockfordroo, are you going to change your name to rockfordmini-lite when you get you new TT?? you know, inquiring minds need to know. Congratulations on your new trailer.

We have a 20' and two 10' extensions. ...all of them have been hooked up a couple of times. Never hurts to have extra and a 10' extension doesn't take up that much room.
You just might end up parking somewhere where all the hookups are at the very back of the pad.

I full time and let my 20' lay on the ground so every year I replace it with new.

The longest hose we've ever needed was 30 ft at the 2013 Goshen FROG Rally.

We have used 25 ft often. It depends on the layout of your camper & the campground. Our TH is 36 ft & the sewer outlet is in front of the wheels. Our favorite campground has the sewer inlet located at the back so the need for 25 ft. Another newer campground we often go to has two sewer inlets on almost every site so at time I can get away with 5 foot at times. We carry 35 ft but it is rare that we need that much but it does happen.

I have the 20 footer that I use, a new 20 footer still in the box and a 10 footer new in the box, just in case. They are not very heavy and I am prepared. Good Luck

You can’t ever have too much hose! You don’t have to buy it all at once just pick-up a little at a time.

Last weekend I had 20’ of sewer hose, needed 28’ so I borrowed and rigged up enough, when I got home I bought 2 10’ extensions.

I think I have about 100’ of water hose in 4 different hoses, with the primary water and then the flush this has always been enough.

I don’t have a 50 amp extension cord I’m a little concerned about the added distance and voltage drop probably paranoid.

I don't know. It doesn't have quite the same ring to it, does it?

[tenttotrailer]

Get the extension, the piece of mind is worth the couple bucks it will cost. Same for water and power, sucks to be a foot short.

25 feet of Rhino hose, 10' of it still unused in the box.

[OldCoot]

Ask FT Turbs about short hoses. I think we put 30'-45' together 2 yrs ago at Goshen so several folks could dump.

[Mowgli64]

I carry a 20' and a 10', 90% of the time 10' is enough.

[jtstromsburg]

1 20ft, 2 10ft, and a cheapo for dump stations. I have 150' of fresh water hose as well. Been times all of each has been used.

[Mojojojo]
