Common Concerns Answered
Is a dedicated rinsing hose truly necessary for RV sewer hoses?
While a standard garden hose can flush a sewer hose, the Camco RhinoFlex's 4-way water pressure blaster and secure rinser cap provide a more concentrated and effective clean, ensuring superior sanitation and preventing residual odors that standard methods may not fully address.
Will the rinser cap seal properly on my existing bayonet fitting?
The rinser cap is designed to create a watertight seal on standard 3-inch bayonet fittings. While most users report a secure fit, occasional issues with older or slightly worn fittings have been noted, though the ergonomic wings facilitate easy adjustments for optimal sealing.
Is the hose stiff in cold weather?
Some users have reported that the hose can become a bit stiff in colder temperatures, which is a common characteristic of PVC-based hoses. For optimal flexibility in such conditions, storing the hose in a warmer environment when possible is recommended.
