Setting Up Your Fresh Water System: A Complete Guide
Upgrading or installing a water system in your camper or motorhome is a crucial step toward achieving your self-containment certification. Our latest video guide walks you through the exact setup needed for a reliable, compliant fresh water supply.
The core of the setup featured in our video is the Fresh Water Tank 25 Litre With Hose. Made from a non-corroding, opaque material, these 25L tanks are suitable for both fresh and grey water. The tank dimensions are 450mm high by 275mm deep by 275mm wide, providing enough capacity for self-containment for 2 people. The set comes complete with a coupling that fits a hose with an internal diameter of 12mm.
What You Need for a Complete Setup
To meet full self-containment regulations, you require 2 of these tanks—one for fresh water and one for waste water. For the most efficient setup, we highly recommend pairing your fresh water tank with the following accessories:
- Fresh Water Tank 25 Litre With Hose: The primary tank featured in our guide.
- Fresh Water Hose with Fitting: Combine this with your fresh water tank for easy filling.
- Chrome Hand Pump Tap: Complete your manual water delivery system easily.
- 25 Litre Waste Tank With Selected Fittings and Vent Hose: Required for waste water to complete the self-contained loop.
- Self Containment kits
- Sinks
