Common Concerns Answered
Can the Camco EvoFlex2 hose be stiff in cold weather?
While designed for superior flexibility, some users report that the hose can become somewhat stiff in extremely cold temperatures, a characteristic common to many hose materials. Proper storage and handling in frigid conditions are recommended.
Do the fittings on the Camco EvoFlex2 hose always seal perfectly?
The aluminum fittings are designed for a secure connection. In rare instances, minor tightening may be required out of the box to ensure a perfect seal, which is a standard maintenance check for any water connection.
Is the fabric reinforcement on this hose truly necessary for my needs?
The fabric reinforcement significantly enhances the hose's durability, kink resistance, and shape retention, particularly important in demanding RV and marine environments with frequent connection/disconnection and potential abrasion. This offers a longer service life compared to non-reinforced options.
