Being a live-aboard I battle this all the time. When tied to the dock I
flush with fresh water and salt water when out cruising. And every couple of
months I poor vinegar in the head flush into hose and let sit over night or
longer if possible. Doesn't stop the build up, but sufficiently slows it down.

To avoid this in the future, flush a head full of vinegar through every couple
of months ;)JoeCoquina From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]]On

Subject: Stus-List head hoses Recently I had to remove the discharge hose from
the head to clear it out. It had developed a crystalline growth that had
clogged up with other stuff. After I literally beat the crap out of it to
clear it, I was unable to get it back up behind the toilet as it was to stiff
and difficult to work back in place with the anti syphon valve. Disassembling
it from the valve was not workable, as I could not reach it to reassemble. I am
looking for advise on another hose that is more plyable than the rubber and
coiled wire hose that I took out. Fred HazzardS/V FuryC&C 44Portland, Or
