Hey how often do you change your transfer tubes and hoses?

I am very obsessive about cleanliness and sanitation, and a couple months ago I had a slight infection in a beer only the second time in over 100 batches.
I believe it came from the hoses, just a gut feeling, but I hadn't changed them in a few months and had a feeling they were overdue.
 
I have had mine for 8 years. I just rinse them out after every use and sanitize them before I use them. If I had an infection though I would change everything out.
