Can the python gravel vac hook up to a bathroom faucet or is it just kitchen style faucets? Sounds pretty dumb of me but I didn't know, and I'm trying to determine how long hose I'll need.

I can hook it up to my bathroom sink but I have to unscrew the screen piece off of the sink faucet and use an adaptor.

Yes a python will adapt to fit most "standard" water supplies though an occasional run to the hardware store for adapters may be in order with non-standard fittings.

It will hook up directly to a standard outside faucet.

It will hook up assuming you have the adapter. I have to use the adapter no matter what faucet I use in the house. In this house I use the kitchen sink because it's closest, but in my last two places, the bathroom sink was the most convenient.

I usually use bathroom sink when using the pythin. I unscrew the end piece, attach the python's adapter and screw the python end on. Works every time.

I have to use the utility sink in my garage. The adapter won't fit on the bathroom or kitchen sink faucet in my house.
