Hi all
Is it possible to lengthen a Truma water filter? Our permanent pitch is on a slope which means the water filter cannot reach the bottom of the water carrier. Any ideas how we could lengthen the pipe?
Thanks

Try finding a stand to put your water carrier on. Simples

any food grade pipe line should do the job, don't use normal hose.

But as Camcroft says higher the water carriers if you are on a permanent pitch, make that pitch work for you.

Remove filter, get one of these and a longer length of suitable hose. Fit filter back on end of new hose and join two with This

Alter the float on the valve so you fill the aqua roll water level higher,Now you dont have to reach the bottom of the aqua roll.
