About this deal

They’re generally reliable but be aware that, if you have a water leak, they can activate automatically and pump water out of any hole or detached hose connector. Draining down over winter, and switching the water pump off when it’s not in use can prevent this. To sterilise your water system, you can add a cleaning agent to your water tank – such as Puriclean – and then open up each water tap or shower head in turn to flush it through. Start with the tap furthest away from the tank and leave the fluid in the system overnight before flushing it out with fresh water. It’s a good idea to take the vehicle for a drive so that the sterilising fluid can slosh into every corner of the water system. Any plumbing that runs externally should be insulated. This isn’t always the case with waste water plumbing but this is not a major issue as external insulation is easy to add. What types of motorhome water pumps are there? Some display panels indicate water level via a series of LEDs, some use a separate analogue gauge, while others have digital displays.

Any hose that runs from the tap to the motorhome ideally needs to be food-grade to avoid any plastic leaching into the water tank. Some people fill up their water tank with a garden hose pipe, which is less than ideal (definitely don’t drink it). By far the most popular choice for kitchen bins is the pedal bin . The fact that it opens hands-free means you can use both hands to scrape the contents of plates and chopping boards straight in there, without touching the lid. Because it’s such a popular concept, there are dozens of styles to choose from, so there’s bound to be one that matches the style of your kitchen. The steel ones are particularly fashionable, a tough bin that also looks modern. However, metal pedal bins of all types remain kitchen staples. Chrome looks great anywhere, and brushed metal often goes well with the rest of the kitchen’s hardware like hobs and grills. But of course, metal bins also come painted in every colour of the rainbow, and also in printed effects like marble, if that’s your style. Even if the tank drain valve has emptied the water tanks that doesn’t mean the motorhome is fully frost protected – any part of the system where water can be trapped (between the water pump and kitchen tap) can cause an issue. As water freezes it expands and can split the housing it is contained in.All the pipes will be food-grade plastic and are blue or red tubing, denoting cold and hot respectively, or clear piping striped with red or blue flashes. Ensure that your bin lid is closed as we will not remove additional waste that forces the bin open and your bin will not be emptied Most motorhomes (and many campervans) have a fixed fresh water tank onboard that’s filled up by physically moving the vehicle to within a hosepipe-filling length of a water tap. The fresh water tank is connected to a pump and series of hoses and taps, as well as feeding the hot water tank (often built into the heating system with a Truma Combi unit). Do not put your bags in wheelie bins. They will not be collected for health and safety reasons. We collect from ordinary dustbins if the waste is bagged.

Water pumps are generally reliable, but the microswitches on the taps can fail. If the water pump works on the kitchen tap, but not on the washroom basin, then it suggests the washroom tap has failed or has a wiring issue. Read the owner’s manual for the correct winter drain-down procedure. Most involve opening the drain valve in the fresh water tank and the waste water tank, as well as opening up all the sink taps and shower taps. Then run the water pump until your hear it running dry (then switch it off immediately). While most water tanks are rectangular, they can be any shape to fit in a certain space and firms such as Cak Tanks can make a tank in almost any shape or size.

The other common type of water pump is one triggered by on/off microswitches located in each tap. These can be either mounted externally near the water tank or submersed in the tank itself. We all need to do our bit, and these recycling bins make sure you don’t forget. We’ve got some smart designs for keeping your food, metal, glass and general waste separate, so all you need to do is put them in their proper outside bins when they get full. Waste water tanks are often underslung and can be into tight spaces underneath the motorhome or campervan. This can mean that they’re an odd shape so they may need you to make sure the vehicle is level to drain them.

You can also buy cleaning products for your cassette toilet tank but only use products recommended by the toilet maker to avoid damage to the rubber seals. Adding a motorhome water filter Filters must be changed regularly so make sure you fit the filter where it is easily accessible and know the cost of replacement filters before you invest in a system. The best method of installing water tanks is to sandwich them between a heated double floor system and this is the method employed by most high-end motorhome manufacturers. It eliminates most freezing issues and protects the tanks from road debris. Filling a motorhome fresh water tank To recommission the system, close all the drain valves, switch off all the taps and refill the water tank. Then open the tap furthest away from the water tank and keep it open until it gives a steady flow. Repeat this procedure for each tap and the shower head. Most water pumps will self-prime very easily.

Measuring the level of fluid in a tank is a challenge and makers use a variety of systems to achieve this. These range from simple float devices that can vary their resistance as the water level changes, to individual prongs of different lengths that sense when they’re immersed in water. Some systems also have a couple of studs bolted to the side of a waste water tank to indicate when it needs emptying. Water sat in a tank will smell if left for long periods, so always drain it down over winter lay-up. Slimy residues also build up in standing water and these need to be cleaned off at the start of the season. Most water tanks have large inspection hatches for this purpose. All wheeled bins are emptied mechanically into the waste collection vehicle. It is the householder's responsibility to ensure that waste is not overly compacted or frozen in the wheeled bin to ensure that the waste falls out into the vehicle. Equally, if you use your motorhome all year around and love skiing in the winter, then you’ll have different needs to those who simply like to amble around the south of France in August.
