Water System
The van has storage tanks for clean water, and waste “grey” water.
Grey water is exclusively what has gone down the drains of the sinks
or shower. The toilet is a completely separate system.
Clean water is not suitable for drinking without boiling. A separate
bottle of drinking water should be carried for that purpose.
The clean water tank is filled through a filler on the left side of the
vehicle, using the hose supplied.
Water is electrically pumped from the tank to the taps, shower, and
toilet flush. The pump creates a small positive pressure in the system
and then switches off.
When any tap is opened, the pressure falls and the pump runs again until the pressure
is restored – when the tap is turned off.
If the pump can be heard running for no reason, this may be a sign of a leak in the
system or a fault in the pump – or a tap left dripping. Water tank levels are indicated on
the electrical control panel – see page 9.
Waste Water
The waste water outlet is below the water filler on the left side.
View looking forwards from
the back.
Empty the wastewater
tank over a designated
motorhome waste
emptying point.
Turn the red handle to
drain the water, and close
it again when empty.
Do not neglect the emptying of the wastewater tank or dirty water will rise up into
the shower tray.
Do not put fat or solid material down the sink drain. They can block the drain or
accumulate in the tank and cause bad smells.
