outside shower hose question

On my previous TT, somehow water got trapped in the outside shower head over the winter, and it cracked, so I had to replace. Make sure you fuuly drain out the outside shower for the winter!

If you make up a longer hose, is it going to fit back inside okay wherever it goes in your TT? Maybe a removable extension hose would be better for this reason?

How long do you need? Phoenix makes one that is 72" long, which from what I can find is the longest one available for an RV. 72" RV shower hose

The other thing you could try is to take the hose into a plumbing wholesaler and see what they can offer. Sometimes wholesalers have parts and pieces that retailers don't carry. I use one here all the time that also has a retail/wholesale bath and kitchen shop attached that has a whole lot of faucets and accessories and other stuff I can't find anywhere else.

This is the route I would go. Randu

The actual threads on the fitting are "plumbing standard" so getting a longer hose certainly would not be impossible.
Then a better shower "head", cause the standard one sux

read some threads on the pocket hose before investing in one.

X2 what Bumpy said. I haven't read anything good yet.

I would look into an extension of some sort. That gets me curious too.

If you aren't comfortable cutting and adding fittings, RV stores may have a shower head that has a longer hose.

What Bumpy said OR cut the hose and splice in the extra length then you won't have to deal with matching fittings on both ends.
