I'm wondering if one is avail. I've looked online and see them but don't see a listing for the hose I show above.

The ends on mine have deteriorated and come undone making it useless.

Went to local hardware store and they look at me as if I were asking for plutonium.

Called Napa and no help there.

It's gotta fit over a 1 inch receptacle
 
Is Atwood still in business, I Google it and it links dometec?
 
I believe Atwood was bought by Dometic.

I found this with a quick search, may get you started
 
Quick search found many options for 1" flex hose.  Does it need to be 'heat tolerant' ??  If not, maybe a vacuum cleaner hose  ::)

Yes, all parts available. Atwood was bought out by Domedic but the Atwood line and name are the same.

This is 3' long but can you use it?

It will not stretch and I'm guessing it has to be heat tolerant or else they would have put a cheaper hose in there originally

that looks like a vacuum cleaner hose that's probably not going to do it
 
I doubt if the temps go above 130 or so, so it's warm rather than high heat.  Many common hoses are good for 160 or so.  Places like Grainger Supply probably have something that works.  Does it have to be a flex hose or would a solid hose cut to the right length work.

That hose doesn't look like an Atwood part anyway. RV furnaces rarely (if ever) include any hoses - that is part of the RV builders installation.

I'm pretty sure it has to be a flex hose otherwise it's going to Kink or needs to make that bend especially once it warms up
 
I think I found it on Summit I appreciate all the thoughts and replies

thanks that might work but the one that's Summit they say will withstand temperatures up to 350 degrees it's about $20 I would rather take my chances with that I think thanks anyway though
 
I'm literally standing here and Home Depot right now looking for a regulator for my camper and they don't stock the quick changeover regulators.

They have nothing here but a basic simple one connection regulator

You won't find them there. You need to go to either a RV store or buy it online through Amazon or a RV supply house.

If you are looking for an Automatic Changeover 2 Stage Propane Regulator you will have to go to a RV parts dealer, a propane dealer who does service work or order one online: https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Heater-Changeover-Stage-Regulator/dp/B000DZQQYG
 
I see Ok, stay tuned for some pictures of why anyone should clean out their furnace assuming they are the proud owners of a brand new old stock camper like mine :)
