Recommendation for 70 Foot RV Sewer Hose  

Question:

Hi there! How long could I extend ad RV sewer hose by hooking hoses together? Im hoping I could go 70foot with a very slight downhill slope. If the answer is not that far, is there a pump that would allow it to go that far?

Helpful Expert Reply:

For that type of length your best option will be to go with a Macerator System like the SewerSolution # SS01. This system uses a high-pressure water stream that pulverizes waste with enough pressure to pump up to 100 feet on flat ground. I called and spoke with my contact at Valterra who makes this system and she said that for distances of over 30 feet they recommend connecting hard piping (PVC) to the included hose. With a slight downhill slope like you described she said you won't have any issues.

The included hose measures 10 feet in length so you will want to use PVC for the remaining 60 feet. Just connect the hose to the PVC using a 1 inch coupler.

I have attached a short video demonstration on the Macerator System that you can also check out.
