Sewer hose length and support recommendation
Hi all, For a 45 coach what length of sewer hose would you recommend? Also, what brand of hose and support do you recommend? Thanks, Stuart

We try to travel about half the time and dry camp a large portion of that resulting in significant importance paid to black and grey inventory. The wife manages the books (gas debit card selection) and I manage the waste water. Discussion about either is serious and if I need to go from 5 days between dumps to 8 having her full buy-in to water conservation is critical.
In our class a the first indication of over filling the grey water tank is a rise of water in the shower stall. Using a flash lite you can look down the toilet and verify remaining space. Level gauges are not reliable enough due to fouling service.
My concern for fastidious went away a long time ago with the midnight diaper changing shift for the three kids. Cloth diapers!!!! A good clean water flush and some chlorox goes a long way in cleaning up after a dump.
Rhinoflex and a plastic support system to get the gravity right is what I use. I also carry a spare sewer cap because I understand that the DPS can issue a citation for not having in place and I do not want to be knowingly without. I use a 1 foot clear hard plastic extender for the first segment of hose off the coach fitting because the fitting is a stretch reach under the rv and it is easier to get a solid connection. The storage locker for the dump equipment does get a chlorox wash down each time we return to home base.
