Drinking Water Hose

[Tom Sutor]

If I come across an interesting or high quality product that I might want to use with my TD, I'll think of posting a link here. I came across it in The NY Times Wirecutter. Eley is a company in Nebraska that makes commercial quality watering products with a 10 year warranty and sells only through their internet site. (You won't see these products at Home Depot.) The drinking water safe garden hose is on sale now at 20% off. They are still pricey and I probably won't order one, just stick with my Walmart RV grade hose, which is a stiff piece of crap with junk fittings.....Good luck trying to uncoil it when its cold.

Good suggestion. Thanks! Yes, the white Walmart hoses are hard to manage. I found a version of the white hose in blue that signals potability to me and is a little easier to roll up. I use this on my trailer at my super secret summer camp on whidbey island.
For my campinn I've stopped using the water tanks because I could never find a place to flush out the winterize fluid. I like the water system but I never camp where I would hook up to city water. That said, a shorter, flexible, hose to use for the campinn sure would be nice.
I carry in my teardrop a Go Berkey, the smallest size Berkey, to filter water. I have 2 metal containers to carry filtered drinking water. And carry lots of other ways to carry washing water as needed depending on where I am.
