Recently while in Florida, I noticed that my fresh water hose, on a power hose reel, has bubbles of water between the inner liner and the outer clear plastic. Looking for advice on replacing the fresh water hose on the reel and how difficult it might be to remove and replace the hose on the power reel?

I just replaced my hose that was on the reel. It was a simple thing to do. I extended the hose all the way and locked the reel in place with vise grips to prevent it from retracting while I was working on it. My hose was attached to the reel fitting with a hose clamp, so I cut off the connector that came attached to my replacement hose. After making the connection, remove the vise grips and let it retract slowly. I also replaced the hose exiting the reel assy. that supplies the coach at the same time. I used new hose clamps as the old ones were rusty. I hope this helps
