Raritan Saniflex Hose

[Stan Breaux]

I am about to replace my head with a Raritan Marien Elegance head.

I also want to replace all of the hoses.

Has anyone used the Raritan Saniflex hose?

Is there a better hose that I should use?

A few thoughts, based on my expereinces with a number of hoses.

I highly recommend Trident 101/102. Used on 2 boats now with outstanding results.

Stan, On my boat, I have used both Trident 101/102 and Raritan saniflex. My experience is that is that that the Trident is extraordinarily stiff and very difficult to bend around anything other that larger radius curves. The Raritan is significantly more flexible and relative easy to get into spaces where the Trident have been nearly impossible to install.

As far as odor permeation, I've only had it installed for about a year and so far so good.

The Trident is stiff. But that is because it is a double wall hose. Saniflex is single wall. I have not used the Saniflex so I cannot compare.
