Here in AZ where it sits full time in the sun I usually have to replace them every year. I see if they flex and when I hear hissing so I replace them. Couple of years on the regulator.
There only a couple of dollars so not worth getting up to the remote camping spot and find out the tank drained going up there. So every year now I change them.
Then again, I've been in AZ in the Summer and ol Sol bakes a lot of stuff.
This AF 30u they are covered, they sit in a compartment in the front cap. Also I cover the whole TT with the ADCO premium cover during the summer. When I uncover one of the the first things I do is replace the lines
Where they fail is the factory connection at the line to the fitting, they just loose there seal, dry out is the way I would describe it. If you try to bend them they actually crack.
