poop

Post by jprohan »

I am in the process of replacing my macerator pump; and probably should replace the white sanitation hoses while I'm at it. Anyone have any advice re the best hose to use? I know West and Hamilton et al sell the white saanitation hose; not sure if there is anything better out there.

Hi Jim -

A recent post on <another boating forum> covered this pretty well:

<links from that site to AOG are removed by Les Hall. We cannot link back>

But, then again you could search on his name. 8)

I don't know your specific boat or application, but when I installed a new head, I removed the hose and installed PVC pipe directly to the storage tank. The only hose was the short length from the head to the pipe. I made sure to properly support and secure the pipe and that was that, no more smell.
