Fresh water hose.

My white, fresh water hose is old and stiff as a board.

What's out there that's durable and rolls up nice.

I love the Zero G! It collapses flat and I roll it up on one of the plastic reels made for electrical cords!

I have my ZeroG 3 years now and it’s just like new. I bought 2 more at Sam’s Club one day and they have a little bit nicer fittings on the end. Different brand but same concept.

Twinboat Hello!
couple of year's back I bit the bullet and bought two custom water hose's from the water filter store, nothing like them and I believe they are the last water hose I will ever have to buy! Quality is over the top and nothing out there compares to their product .....

Because of this thread, I went and purchased a Zero G 25' hose from Lowes, with an electrical portable spool. Replaced my old hose in the MH and it takes up less space. Thanks!!!

Joe, My water hose (on an electric reel) is old and stiff. It is 50' in length. If I replace it with a 50' Zero hose, I wonder, if it by extending say 20' to the hook up faucet, it will allow water through the the remaining 30 feet still on the reel.

It would be very little water! It's no problem to roll and unroll this hose!

I had to go to a regional chain store that carries a little bit of everything to pick up some items for the wife. Happened to walk down the aisle with hoses and they had a few for ~$24.

I never realized they were drinking water safe till I saw this thread. I have two 20' foot or so white hoses that I carry. Now I have to decide if I want to dump the hard stiff one or the limp flimsy one. Both that kink when you least expect it.

Fresh water hose.

All you fans of the ZeroG type..... are you using these successfully in the main input from park tap to coach? Last time I looked into these (some years ago) folks loved the convenience in a utility mode, but there seemed to be something of a problem with fitting failures when subject to static use under 40-50psi pressure.
Comments?? Thanks.
