This extension is one of two lengths I bought in the same hose family. Keeping the twelve-foot and twenty-four-foot versions separate makes the routing and storage comparison more useful.
I bought Twelve-Foot Braided Propane Extension Hose as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The NQN kit offers another twelve-foot hose-and-adapter package. The twenty-four-foot version adds length, which changes both the available reach and the amount of hose to store.
NQN Twelve-Foot Propane Extension Kit
This NQN kit pairs a twelve-foot braided propane extension hose with conversion fittings. The separate adapters provide several end-connection arrangements.
This twenty-four-foot braided propane extension hose includes several conversion fittings. It provides a longer hose run than the twelve-foot version in the same purchase family.
