Hi team, waiting delivery of converted Toyota alphard and trying to buy stuff I may need in advance. One thing confuses my small brain. How to fill the under slung water tank . What fittings are used both on van and at sites , and how do I know when tank is full ?

Hi Brian,

We have a Wellhouse conversion with fresh and waste tanks slung under the chassis, one each behind the front wheels. Our fill is via an inlet under the front passenger seat, there's no fill gauge so we use a cube-type 15 litre collapsible camping water carrier and funnel with a bent outlet. Experience has shown that a full one doesn't overflow the tank, which I'd struggle to gauge if using a hose.

 

Campsites seem to vary, some have long filler hoses, others assume you'll fill from taps. One thing I've found useful is to carry our own screw-on garden hose connector - helpful when campsite taps have no connector and water just sprays in a huge sideways fan!
