We have ordered an Olympus 534 and looking forward to taking delivery.  However these have an onboard water pump and tank.  I know you can use the aquaroll with it as the onboard tank is only 23litres.  Does the onboard pump just pull out into the aquaroll or do you have to buy a seperate pump.  My apologies for being thick but didnt ask the dealer when ordering.  Would also be interested in how anyone else is getting on with these caravans

The two tanks run separately.  The onboard water is wheeled so you can take it to the water stations.  Without alterations you cannot fill the onboard tank from your aquaroll.

There is a lever under the bedbox to swap between the two.  The pump is internal to the caravan and will suck water from either location.

Your caravan should come with a connector with a pipe (and a carbon filter on the end) to connect the external water socket to your aquaroll.

I guess that this means you loose the benefit of the carbon filter when you use the onboard water.

we only bother with the onboard tank when its winter and the aquaroll freezes up.we`ve took it out now and put it in the shed and keep other bits n bobs in that locker.
