Camco Rhino 5/8" ID -- 25 ft Non-Potable / Sanitation Use Only Camco 22990 Rhino 25 ft Black and Gray Water Tank Clean-Out Hose

A dedicated 25-foot flushing hose built specifically for rinsing RV black water tanks, gray water tanks, portable tote tanks, and sewer lines -- so your drinking water hose never has to go anywhere near the dump station.

Keep Sanitation Tasks Completely Separate

One of the most important rules in RV sanitation is simple: never use your drinking water hose to flush a black or gray tank. The Camco Rhino 22990 exists specifically for that job. At 25 feet, it gives you enough reach to work comfortably at most campground dump stations without having to reposition your rig.

The hose is distinctively colored -- not white or blue like a standard drinking water hose -- so there is no risk of grabbing the wrong one from your storage bay. It connects with a standard garden hose fitting, making it compatible with campground spigots, inline tank rinser attachments, and reverse flush wand valves.

25-Foot Length

Reaches from a typical campground spigot to your dump connection without moving the rig.

5/8" Inner Diameter

Delivers adequate flow for rinsing tank walls and flushing debris through the sewer outlet.

Standard Garden Hose Fittings

3/4" GHT male and female ends connect to campground spigots and Camco rinser accessories.

Dedicated Color Coding

Distinct coloring prevents accidental mix-up with potable water hoses in your storage bay.

What This Hose Is Designed For

The Rhino 22990 is a single-purpose tool for the wet work of RV ownership:

  • Flushing and rinsing RV black water holding tanks after dumping
  • Rinsing RV gray water tanks between fills
  • Cleaning portable tote tanks and Rhino tote tank accessories
  • Backflushing sewer hoses laid out at a dump station
  • Connecting to a reverse flush valve, tank rinser, or wand attachment
  • Washing down the dump station area after use

Works with Camco Rinser Accessories

The 3/4" GHT ends on this hose connect directly to Camco Rhino tank rinsers, inline backflush adapters, and rotating wand attachments. You can build a complete tank-flush system around this hose without any adapters.

How Long Should You Rinse?

For a standard 40-gallon black tank, most experienced RVers run water through a tank rinser or wand for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the water runs clear at the sewer outlet. Running a full tank of fresh rinse water through the sewer hose afterward helps clear residue from the hose itself before you store it.

Storage Tip

After use, flush the hose with clean water before coiling. Store it in a separate bag or compartment from your potable water hose -- never in the same bag or wrapped around it. Label it clearly if needed. Most RVers mark it with colored tape or store it in a dedicated zip bag.

Pair With a Tank Rinser or Backflush Valve

This hose is most effective when paired with a dedicated tank rinser (such as the Camco Rhino Flush tank rinser port) or a backflush wand that routes water into the tank through the sewer outlet. The hose alone delivers water from the spigot -- the rinser or wand gets it inside the tank walls.

Important Information

  • Not for drinking water use. This hose is rated and intended for sanitation tasks only. Never use it to fill a potable water tank, a drinking water filter, or any food-contact application.
  • Cross-contamination risk. Even if flushed, do not interchange this hose with your white or blue drinking water hose. Store them separately at all times.
  • This hose delivers water from the spigot to the tank area -- it does not replace a tank rinser wand or backflush valve. For thorough tank cleaning, you need a rinser port, wand, or reverse flush adapter used in conjunction with this hose.
  • Flush before storing. Run clean water through the hose and allow it to drain fully before coiling and storing. Trapped waste water breeds bacteria and odor.
  • Check campground water pressure. If campground pressure exceeds 60 PSI, use a pressure regulator on your potable water connection -- but be aware that for a rinse hose, standard campground pressure is generally acceptable for flushing tasks.
  • Not a sewer hose. This hose carries fresh water to the tank for rinsing -- it is not a drain or waste-water carry hose. Waste water exits through your dedicated sewer hose.
