Has anyone else had to replace their Sani Con dump hose on their DX3? I've had our DX3 for a little over a year now and maybe 10-12 "dumps" in that time. As we were leaving the campground yesterday at the end of the grey tank dump, a pin hole in the hose resulted. The hole is right near where the hose angles up from the connector/output.
I always pull out the whole hose and rest it in the grass or on the ground when dumping. I figure between the expansion and pressure, it caused the pin hole to develop.
Has anyone else had to replace their hose? I have a hose clamp and tape on the end of mine currently where the hose attaches on the output due to it coming off when we first got it. Did anyone else have to replace any other parts with a new hose? Looks like Thetford offers a 1 year warranty but that has passed unfortunately.
I found this on Amazon, I'm assuming this is the correct replacement hose?

Has anyone also tried using the standard 3" flex hose off the front of the Sani Con and bypass the smaller hose? I hope I don't have to replace a $70+ hose every year or less.
TIA!
