jleamont Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Anyone using this hose at this time? if so can you provide some feedback? https://www.apexhose.com/zero-g-rv-marine-hose Two of us on here have been considering the purchase of this but do not want to spend the money for another "snake oil" gimmick. My current traditional white RV hose is huge when rolled up and takes up too much space. Looking for alternatives. Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Actually that is one of the first of that type that I have seen that was listed as safe for drinking water. I wonder how well the connectors hold up? They look like they only have a knurled band to grasp when tightening the connectors. I will be interested to hear how they work. I am replacing a couple of the cheap whit hoses from Walmart and Camping world because the fittings are so thin and cheap they just crack and leak. I am looking at Camco hoses.

jleamont Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Bill, I use this one, if you have the space they work great, I am trying to make space and these take up so much. My goal is to keep the hose and the water filter in the wet bay. http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/white-never-kink-rv-marine-hose-50-x-5-8-/26451 Great hose, I have two different lengths (25' and 50') it just takes up too much space. I use the Camco quick connects for all of my connections. http://www.etrailer.com/Plumbing/Camco/CAM20143.html?feed=npn&gclid=CNzF4buKxswCFQ9Zhgodh2cOgA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
obedb Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Teknor Apex is a brand name. Homedepot has Teknor products on their site. Why would a reputable company offer junk to the public? I am going to try a 25 footer. That seems to be all of the reach that I need. I will keep another old style 25 footer in the bay. Not leaving until early July heading west. Maybe I will try it around home. Will let everyone know my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might upgrade to the brass ones. I have enough room as my wet area has a compartment just forward that has the water pump. I keep my water hoses in that compartment along with the coax cable to hook up to the campground cable connection. I hope that hose works for you.

wayne77590 Report post Posted May 7, 2016 I have been using the Snap2 Water Connector for several years now. I have only had one that broke on the end of a hose with a heavy nozzle. I use these for all my connections in the water bay. They have been great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
