Question:
Im new to RV camping. Just bought my first trailer and am wondering, is it a good idea to always buy a new fresh water hose when you buy a used camper? Mine has one, but it hasnt been used for a year or so. Im wondering about mildew and bacteria having accumulated in the old one.

I think what you mentioned is a really smart idea. While it's not a generally accepted policy if I were in your situation it's what I would do. The AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose # W01-8300 that you referenced would be a great choice for this. The length of this hose is 25 feet and is rated for up to 160 psi. I attached a review video for more info on this as well.
It's probably a good idea to go with a new water filter too like the part # CAM40043.
