Should Hose Extension or New Hose be Used for Outdoor RV Shower Faucet
Question:
Need to replace my outdoor shower faucet guts which I already have on hand however the hot / cold hoses are not long enough to easily pull out the assembly. This said asking do you have a male to male adapter and hoses to lengthen the existing config? Or would you simply suggest new and longer hose versus an adapter since would be another possible source for a leak?

For the sake of longevity I would personally get longer hoses. Using short extensions will likely make your install right now quicker and easier, but in my experience the more hose connections you have the more potential fail points you have so new longer hoses is definitely the way to go.
We have a handful of hoses I'm linking for you to filter through if you don't already have a new longer hose in mind like the 10' long AquaFresh High Pressure Hose # W01-5120.
