hi guys, will anyone with the above awning know whether I can use any type of pump for this awning or does it have to be a particular type connector for the fitting. it was just the manual type pump and I think it got thrown in a garage clear out.
I just want to make sure I get a suitable pump first time around.
thanks

We use one of these It comes with numerous adapters and fits our Prestina 390.

Very happy with the performance too.

If you search around the web you may get a better price too from memory we paid £69.99 for ours off fleabay

We bought this awning from the show in October and got a electric pump included for £850 instead of £999. We are using it in Spain at the moment.You get a foot pump with the awning which is simple to use and only takes a few minutes to pump the awning up. With the electric pump it takes about 40 seconds.

Sorry we have the electric pump as well. It did come with a foot pump as well, might be worth giving Bradcot a ring? 01274 306811 I found them helpful when I needed to call them

yes I had the foot pump don't know where it is, but I thought if it's just a standard fitting you can get from anywhere, I wouldn't have to pay Bradcot inflated prices, get it?

Yes I get it, I trust you get I am trying to be helpful! If you don't have the screw in adaptor from the pump pipe to the awning, I would guess that is a Bradcot part and not available elsewhere.

thanks Alan, just my sense of humour that's all, I can pick one up from Bradcot for £20, rather than risk it I'm going to pick one up from them.

The Bradcot air awning demonstrated to us had a push fit to the inflate valves from the hand pump.

I'd be very amazed if one of the numerous push fit adapters supplied with the Bravo electric pump wouldn't fit it.

Hi David, The adapter is push fit pump side but is screwed onto the valve on the awning.

The valves on ours screw into the inflatable poles and have screw on cap but the pump fit to them is friction based no need for a screwfit as its only 7.5psi.

Same as our dorema. I think they all buy the valves in from the same suppliers.
