I don't think length is the sole issue, but is a factor. You just want to avoid low spots, and the ideal slope is 1/4" per foot. Not that you're going to measure or anything, you just want the hose to drain, and not collect solids in a low spot. A long gradual slope is better than a foot of straight drop at the valve, and then the rest laying flat without any slope.

I have to say I really like this system! Some jurisdictions require the hose be elevated from the ground!
