RV Sewer Hoses & Fitting

Whether your looking for a replacement RV sewer hose or need to outfit your new camper with it's first sanitation setup, we have you covered. But no matter what brand you choose, Blue Line, Rhino Flex, Smart Drain or Valterra's EZ Flush, if you do not use proper RV sanitation practices it may all end in a big mess. When emptying your RV's black and gray tanks, you always want to dump the black water tank first, allowing the gray water's soapy water to rinse the hose. It's always a good idea to ensure the black water tank is at least 1/2 to 3/4 full before dumping. This gives enough flow to keep your sewer hose from plugging up during the dumping process. You never want to leave the black water tank valve open when hooked up at a full hookup campsite. By doing so, it allows all of the liquids to drain, leaving solid waste behind to harden at the bottom of the tank. Keeping the length of your sewer hose as short as possible will also eliminate the chances of a backup. Having shorter sections to put together versus one long hose can be a good choice when camping at many different locations. It's always a good idea to wear protective rubber gloves or use hand sanitizer any time you are handling your RV's sewer hose.

Traveling and living in an RV or a motorhome can be a fulfilling experience. You get the unique opportunity to “live on the road” and not be tied down to any one specific place. It’s liberating and a way of living that deserves true merit.

As enjoyable as this living experience may be, some parts of it are less than ideal and/or appealing. One such activity that is necessary, yet less than exciting to involve yourself in, is emptying your toilet tank.

There are two tanks in an RV with a toilet and running water. The gray water tank is what remains of the water that went down your sink and shower drains. The black water tank, however, is what has been flushed down your toilet. Leaving these uncleaned and unkept, especially the black water tank, can result in stenches that no one should have to experience.

To properly clean and empty these two tanks, you will need proper equipment, such as sewer hoses and fittings, along with applicable facilities. Sewer hoses allow you to successfully transfer the wastewater from the tank to the sewer via the RV’s sewer outlet.

However, as you might imagine (or already know firsthand), this process is not for the faint of heart. You can better this situation by utilizing sewer fittings. These can be applied to a sewer hose and drastically reduce the smell and any amount of spillage during the emptying process.

Both sewer hoses and fittings are imperative to your RV living situation, so having these two key pieces of equipment ready to go is always an excellent idea. We have some of the most high-quality items for your RV, including these particular pieces. Now you can thoroughly enjoy your RV life and not have to dread the tank-emptying process as much!
