"Ramp" for sewer line?
I have a friend ask if we bought a ramp for our sewer hose. I have never heard of this or seen anyone talk of this on here. She thought it was pretty necessary. Comments? Thanks!

Most of the US, the use of something like the Slunky or nexted rain gutters and blocks and such to support the hose is optional.. I do it, Why, because I like it that way.
In Las Vegas.. There is an ordnance that says that the sewer hose has to be in a constant slope to the hole in the ground (My name for the sewer system inlet) I, personally, have never seen such an ordinance anywhere else.. I also have not looked for one.
The problem with the Slunky (Shown above) is that unless the hose is stretched to the max.. When you dump the hose may stretch a bit and SNAKE Turning the supports on their sides.. Then you have to walk the line and set it back up... The nexted gutter systems some use do not do this, nor do telescoping PVC pipes.. HOWEVER.. they can not go around corners.
