Cut Up Fresh Water Hose

Yes-I did it on purpose and into 3 pieces.

Was over on another RV Mode Site where a guy posted his idea of cutting his 25 FT fresh water hose into one 5 FT length and two 10 FT lengths.

Having camped with my GF in her Little Guy teardrop travel trailer I recall having to step around, over and/or trip thru excess water hose when we were right next to the water outlet. (Will not go into language issues here.)

Took under $10.00 and about 30 minutes to make the cuts and install the new couplings. Now I can, using various lengths, use only enough hose of 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 feet to connect to the fresh water outlet.

It curls up nice and neat to fit in an ottman I have under the passenger compartment. Other things in the ottman include water regulator and thief, sewage hook ups, and electrical adapters and surge protectors.

And the ottman is very handy for use as a extra outdoor seat.
