Colour of water hose
The water hose between the tap and the trailer, why are they white? Any issues with using a new garden hose instead?

The cheap white hoses blow apart and most usually at the connectors, if there is much pressure at the parks. They are not lined and thin and that lets sunlight do its work and algae grows. I found ours a long time ago, when we came back from eating out had been spewing water for some tine. We were sitting in a very large pool of water. Why no one volunteered to shut it off, I don't know.
On the net you could find lined heavy duty drinking water hose with silver in the lining and heavy duty stainless fittings. 50 ft was then the minimum order and a bit expensive.We stumbled upon lined blue hose at RV factory store with stainless ends. About 50.00 I think. Since then we have seen some similar with a waxy feel and they have plated aluminum heavy duty appearing ends or just plain aluminum. That waxy Chinese stuff.. we bought a Cb and it stayed in the box in the RV for some time. The waxy plastic of the mike cord rotted in the box.We've had it tool long to return it. Our hose is a little stiff the newer ones I described are very hard to coil.
