Mr Ash Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Do all Aquarolls have the side connection for when you are on a fully service pitch? I want to get the parts to be able to run this as my water and waste bottles are pretty old but the pictures i see of them dont show all around the bottle? What else would i need to be able to do this? I'm still pretty new when it comes to Caravaning and what stuff i need is best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WispMan Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I think Aquarolls always have the middle connection point. Whether other makes do, I cannot say. Quote Graham Unless otherwise stated all posts are my personal opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbido Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 you'll also need the screw in float valve along with 10m of food grade hose pipe complete with the end fittings. a roll of PTFE plumbers tape would not go amiss either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ern Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 The standard Aquaroll will have the screw cap in the side and the top. You can buy a spare top and bodge a hole in it for a float valve, or you can buy the whole thing on tinternet (which is easier). You then need a hose with a connector each end - could be a lay flat, also available from tinternet. Quote Ern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea&Sand Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 If you have Whale water system then perhaps this (no need for the aqua-roll). https://www. ebay. co. uk/i/351714097855?chn=ps&dispItem=1&adgroupid=43005137722&rlsatarget=pla-324398848764&abcId=1058866&adtype=pla&merchantid=7130904&poi=&googleloc=9046936&device=c&campaignid=797783973&crdt=0 Another Whale option for use with aquaroll: http://www. ebay. co. uk/itm/201600603581?_trksid=p2057872. m2749. l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still pretty new when it comes to Caravaning and what stuff i need is best The 40 litre one does, the smaller (older) 29 litre one doesn't have the centre outlet. The 29 litre one also has a smaller aperture than the 40 litre one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiffy176 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Parts required are. Side entry torbeck valve Standard garden hose screw on tap connector. Optional is an aquaroll cap. Drill out a hole big enough to pass the connector part of the torbeck through and loosely fit. Screw the cap into the aqua roll and mark the top using anything. Remove cap and tighten torbeck in place ensuring it is vertically lined up with the direction of the top of the cap. Now fit the two parts of the tap adapter, you might need some PTFE tape. Now connect the hose to this and test, if working refit to aquaroll and job done. Screw fix or toolstation are always good for the parts and a drill bit. Usually less than a tenner.

Glen and Les Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Be careful with the fittings, because not all water carriers, that look like the traditional Aquarolls, have the same screw thread, we have a blue one, made by Royal, and it is the same thread. We also have the side entry point. Got our parts from Caravanstuff4U. Quote 2019 Ford Kuga 2. 0 (150 bhp) AWD Manual and 2022 Coachman Acadia GTS 565.

The 29 litre one also has a smaller aperture than the 40 litre one. The newer 29 litre has the same larger hole, it was only the old type with the small hole.

Griff Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I have what is shown in the second link, my float is a different shape though and came without the flat hose.

Black Grouse Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Sorry I meant to say how would that setup work compared to the more expensive one It's a direct hose into the caravan, using a pressure limiter to prevent issues from too high a mains pressure - my Lunar Clubman came with it as standard but made optional for later model years - it's great, much quicker setting up and finishing - the site we were on recently had fitted each pitch's water point with a double outlet so you could still get water to top-up flush tank, for instance.

Mr Ash Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 I like that idea. Saves room when packing up too. Cheers for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
