Freshwater hose sanitizing?

[Randall lee]

Do you do anything for the water hose to clean it inside? We make camp for a week or maybe a month, drain the hose as I rolling it up but is there something else I should be doing?

I'm not sure if it makes a difference or not but I connect the 2 ends together after I roll it up. Come spring, I'll use the same mixture they recommend for our fresh tank sanitization.

I just drain it out and roll it up. Let it dry out naturally after that.

Ynot4me2 is correct. I empty the hose completely, roll up and connect the ends together being careful that neither end touches the ground. The in the spring sanitize it with a bleach solution. After each use the hose gets rolled up with the ends connected. When I connect the hose each time I first spray a bleach solution all over the spigot and up inside if I can. Then I hook up to the spigot and run water through it for a little bit to be sure nothing was hiding in the spigot, then turn off and connect to trailer - again being sure each end does not touch the ground.

Hope this helps

After a trip I lay the hose (s) out in the sun and blow them out with an air compressor.
