Pump out hose

[The Dread Pirate Robert]

My hose connecting the pump out fitting and the holding tank is original, 1987, to the boat. It looks a bit cracked and could be a source of oder. The current 2” ID hose is black with wire reinforced.
Can it be replaced with a white pvc schedule 40 flex hose or does it need to be wire reinforced as well?

Holding tank hoses are usually 1.5” ID. I would certainly replace a hose as old as that. Raritan SaniFlex hose is all that I would use. It is extremely flexible and has a warranty for odors. Can you adapt the tank to a 1.5” hose? Defender sells SaniFlex by the foot.

Envinronmentalmarine.com has a 2 inch non-permeable sanitation hose that is flexible and similar to the Raritan and Trident 101 products.
