2013 23IKSS Kitchen Slide Propane Hose Leak

This weekend when I turned on the propane for the burners inside, I could smell propane outside and hear it leaking.
Turns out the hose which leads into the Kitchen Slide is cracked.

What is the best type of hose to use which is "flexible" plus durable?


Thanks
Mike

This is on a slide moving in and out I would go with a good quality flexible propane hose. JMHO

Keeping the Roo long? If so, consider a stainless braided hose.

For LP you will need a hose that is "gas vapor approved". Go to your local propane shop with the old hose and have them fabricate one. They will ensure it is quality hose, the correct size, correct WP and has positive crimps. Too many times, the on-line products are Chinese garbage. There are numerous threads on this forum concerning LP hoses and pigtails blowing apart at the crimps. LP gas leaks are nothing to fool around with, nor should anyone opt for a cheap product.
