From experience, we know that not all utility pedestals are created equal. This short, strong and pliable piece of hose will come in handy when we're dealing with an unusual spigot height and angle. We bought two of these, one to keep in reserve and another to use with external water filters at the RV park where we are spending the winter.
Stumbled across this one from Camco because we were hooking up this
Hydro Life 52710 Twin Filtration System (Hydroponics)
between the utility pedestal spigot and the water hose that leads to the water filter installed in our motor coach.
You might term it 'overkill", but this extra filter system cleaned up our water--something the already installed, good quality, human-consumption filter could not handle. We were having problems with white residue in our stainless steel sinks and building up on all our plumbing hardware. These two filters--acting as sacrifice filters--in conjunction with a drinking water filter has given us beautiful water, clean, soft, great-tasting.
So this is how we installed this system:
Brass flow restriction orifice right out of the spigot --> then this hose protector --> then a 4 foot length of hose,
Camco 22763 TastePURE Drinking Water Hose (1/2"ID x 4') - Lead Free
, which allowed this system to stand firmly on the cement platform at the utility pedestal --> then our motor coach's water hose, which attaches to the coach's installed water filter.
