Description
The CAMCO MFG 22823 is a 10-foot tastepure premium drinking water hose designed for safe potable water delivery in RV, campsite, and jobsite applications. Constructed from NSF-certified PVC, the hose wall is 20 percent thicker than standard hoses, reducing kink risk during routing and connection. The 5/8-inch inside diameter supports steady flow, and nickel-plated machined fittings at each end provide corrosion-resistant, leak-resistant connections. The formulation is lead-free, BPA-free, and phthalate-free, meaning it will not impart a strong plastic taste or chemical odor to the water passing through it. Licensed plumbers and service technicians typically specify this hose for temporary or permanent potable water hookups.
This hose is suited for residential and light commercial potable water supply connections where a certified, drinking-water-safe flexible hose is required. Common install scenarios include RV fresh-water inlet connections, outdoor spigot-to-appliance runs, and temporary construction-site water supply. The anti-kink construction makes it practical in tight quarters where a standard hose would restrict flow from bending. The hose ships in a package quantity of three units, making it appropriate for stocking at the shop level for repeat service calls.

Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified RV service technician. Shut off the water supply at the source valve before connecting or disconnecting the hose. Hand-tighten fittings and verify snug seating before restoring pressure; avoid over-tightening, which can damage the machined fittings or threads. Inspect the hose for cracks or fitting damage before each use in potable water service.
