That's a very inventive solution, Wayne. I like it. One thing, though. If the hose coil is permanently connected into the system (as a tank accumulator would be), and the coil is stashed below the level of the tee, drops of water will slowly migrate into the hose, "waterlogging" the hose/accumulator. Provision will likely need to be made to drain the hose every once in a while.

On the other hand, if the hose is permanently connected, and the coil is mounted above the level of the tee, or even stood up beside the connection, drops of water that enter the hose will drain back when the pressure is removed, and won't accumulate in the hose.

Or of course if you make the tee connection accessible, the hose coil could be connected and disconnected each time you set up and take down the trailer.
