TANK VENT & OVERFLOW FITTING - 

The Hydro-Well III gives you the option 

of mounting the water overflow fitting on the right side, left side or both sides of the tank.  

Choose the location that best suits your layout and to install the overflow fittings on the side of the 

tank. Drill a 1” hole through the flow to allow the 3/4” ID overflow hose to extend though the 
floor and under the van to prevent the overflow water from draining into the van.  

Tank overflow fittings, consisting of one 1/2” M-F Elbow (BR286) and one 3/4” Hose Barb x 

1/2” MPT (BR044), are included with the Hydro-Well III.  

Tank Vent & Overflow Fittings must be installed to protect tank from damage 
due  to  overfilling  or  over-pressurizing.  Failure  to  install  the  Tank  Vent  & 
Overflow Fittings will void the Hydro-Well III warranty. 

Only fill the Hydro-Well III while vehicle is parked on a level surface. 
Pressure regulator must be used on hose when filling tank. 

 
There are two Overflow Ports one on each side of the tank. The use of one overflow assembly is 

required. The other Vent/Overflow port can be blocked with the PVC 1/2” Hex Plug (BR226P) 

included with the Hydro-Well III.  

The ¾” ID hose & hose clamp are not included with the Hydro-Well III.
