Hi all, Last year our Truma Ultraflow housing cracked--water gushing down side of van when pump turns on. I replaced the whole housing unit--and it's now happening again. Lots of threads here of how bad these housing units are... Therefore--does anyone have any advice on swapping out the truma ultraflow housing for a Whale or similar housing and pump? It looks smaller, so was going to simply construct a mounting plate for it from plywood to insert into current hole in the van wall where the ultraflow is sited. Any better ideas appreciated. photo attached of leak in action! all help much appreciated, Malcolm.

Hi. completely new to this. just come back from our first ever touring van holiday, only three days and this was to just try it out. .... OK. we bought it cheap to try, van is an old compass rallye gte 2 berth. ... the guy said everything worked, it didn't but it does now. on cleaning the shower out i noticed some very small but long cracks in the base of the shower. ..... what i want to know is, can i get a replacement base, secondly and preferably, can i repair it in any way? I was thinking of getting a non slip mat in that has no holes in it but i guess that wouldn't guarantee all the water getting to the plug hole but i don't want water getting through the plastic base so any advice would be welcome. ..... Loved being away in the little van as well ?

Hi, just finished preping the van for the main holiday finished off by coating the tyres with tyre gel, I had to go and get the reading glasses as it looked like the tyre walls were cracked ! after looking closely with the glasses on sure enough the walls are cracked on both tyres. Now the van is two and a half years old. the tyre pressures are 61psi and kept constantly at that pressure. the van has covered less than 2,000 miles, it has been dealer serviced twice. the wheels are taken off in the winter and kept in the hut. The tyres are Maxmiler CX 175x14. I am surely within my rights to expect a longer life than 2,000 miles . in fact when I break it down it is probably less than 40hours actual running time, "not a happy camper" Stevenj
