Hi All

 

I have asked this question on another forum but still not sure to be honest -

 

 

We bought a 2007 Swift Charisma 590 that has an onboard water pump. We have ordered a Aquaroll and a waste water container but unsure if we need an external water pump to get the water from the aquaroll into the van or whether the onboard pump will do this? The water inlet is only a 19mm single plastic pipe on the side of the van under a white cover.

Sorry if this sounds dull but we are new to caravaning

 

Thanks

 

Taffy

You do not need an external water pump, the onboard pump does everything.

Yes the on board pump will do the job. On the end of the pipe that goes in your aquaroll, It may have a filter, make sure the filter as sunk under the water,  just hold the other end of the pipe up letting the air out of the pipe for a few seconds. Other wise you be pumping air up for ages.

Thanks for the speedy replies  I contacted the seller who told me he has the filter hanging in his garage (he had cleaned it with milton fluid and forgot to put it back in the van)
