Technically there is no limit to how long a propane hose can be. However, the general consensus is that it should be no longer than 20' like the # 1000914-240-MBS. Any longer than 20' and you may experience problems with pressure and flow.

My 33ft rv has tanks on the tongue and the kitchen in the back. With the route of hose I'm guessing it's close to 36ft run. Is this not good.
