Water hose size
Does it really make any difference whether to use 5/8 or 1/2 " for the hose size to the FW? Thank"s Larry

That's a gross mis-statement. I don't believe I've ever seen anything less than a 3/4" water line. Then they install either a 1/2" or 3/4" hose bib, neither of which has a 100% port (orifice is less than nominal size). But the more limiting factors are pressure and the pipe size in the rig. Volume is based on pressure and if you diminish the pressure, the volume follows. Therefore, on a campers in most parks, I don't see how a 1/8" difference in hose size will be noticeable under 99% of circumstances.
