I know in Oregon by law they are required and you must have a min. downward slope to the CG drain. Tried to find the Oregon regs. once but couldn't. We've been to many CGs in Or. where the rule isn't enforced at the CG tho. I believe some other states have a similar reg. Probably a good idea to pack a set just in case.
I never use these things. Used them in our first season and never again. I just lay the hose on the ground and doesn't matter if it slopes up or down as long as the CG drain is below the elevation of the black tank outlet. Then I just "walk" the contents along the ground until the hose is empty. Easey peasey and fast. Don't use a hose storage carrier either. I just connect the ends together and toss them in the back of the truck.
