    Connecting Sewer Hose to Recessed Concrete Pad

    I am sure you have come across a threaded sewer connection that is mounted in a recessed concrete pad. The recess allows for drainage into the sewer. The problem, that I haven't been able to figure out, is screwing my 90-degree fitting into the sewer connection. Some of the recesses are deep enough that you cannot connect the hose bayonet to the 90-degree fitting. I haven't been able to find a 45-degree fitting with threaded end, which likely would work. I have tried using the 90-degree with the flexible rubber seal to add a little elevation, but it is not as tight as screwing in the fitting.

    Any thoughts on this?

    Ask at the campground office. You're likely not the first to face this dilemma.

    Been there - done that. What a nuisance!

    I carry one of these sewer hose "donuts" for those situations. I can stuff my Rhino sewer end into it and it holds quite well.

    We have one exactly like that and it has never let us down... it gives a nice tight seal that stays in place.

    Just a test to see if it works. Obviously I don't use this much. Living proof you can't teach old dogs new tricks.
