Thanks! Glad I could be of help.

You're welcome. Glad I could help. I've been using it quite a while now, and I'll say it's really perfect for usability and has worked flawlessly. I still empty it after every trip. I find with 2 people and a dog we use about 1 1/2 -2 gallons of water a day. Good luck on your build.

Well that's excellent news! mine arrives in the post tomorrow . It's just the right solution. And thank you for added information too! @@michele2017promastertravel

Thanks. Glad I could help. The small pump was good for a starter, I never had any issues with it not working. I'm still super pleased with the new pump. I've taken in on several trips and washed my hair with it a few times now and it really performs well.

I can report that after several boondocking trips I still use about the same amount of water per day, it just takes me less time to pump it out. Good luck on your project.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks.

Glad I can be of help. YOu'll really like the Whale pumps. They will never loose their prime. You can also regulate flow by giving a heavy or soft pump with your foot.

That's awesome. Thanks for the comment.

Your welcome.

Yes, I sure do. I give you parts list etc. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m7pkh69emLyVoXk.html

I know. Don't you love the term?

Thank you.

Hi there. These units are made for long term usage on boats. The reviews I have seen from boatlife people say they last years with high usage. I've only done a few trips with mine and I'm happy to report that it has never leaked and I love the volume, it's working out really well for me. The key to no leakes is warming your tubes so it really compression fits onto the spouts. Good luck.

@@michele2017promastertravel Happy to hear you're happy with the setup! Im just about to install mine. Got new 1/5" tubing. But are you saying I should warm the tubes when clamping them to the spouts?

@@musicisbrilliant Yes. I boiled water and let the end of the tube sit in for about 5 minutes. It made the tube pliable so it slipped on. I've taken tubes off twice now, as I empty my pump if it's going to sit more than 2 weeks. The tubes slide right back on and I use the hose clamp to retighten around end. No leaking.

@@michele2017promastertravel Thats absolutely briiliant! I didnt think of that. Thanks for sharing that tip! Glad you're still happy with the pump and your system. Im excited, just getting mine installed! Should have it in by tomorrow (on my boat). Exciting stuff! Thank you!

Since the video I've been in some really cold weather and had the pump freeze while I was boondocking. The pump thawed just fine and has worked- no leaking. I still recommend disconnecting and empty when you're storing your van. It's a hearty pump.

No they don't. But both are very stable on a smallish piece of 1/2" of plywood. Good luck.

wow. I did not have that experience. Right out of the box the pump was easy to pump and use. It primed in just a few pumps unlike the small one I replaced that needed many pumps to prime. I'd say you probably have a faulty one. I would not try and open it up because you may disturb seals that will not seal again. I'd try and return it if you can. : (

Jake I'm thinking you need to return that pump.

The two blue ones come front Walmart. The lid has a removable disk to seal a hole in the center of the lid (so you can insert a spout like a gas can if you want to). I used a dremel tool and opened up that disk to accommodate the quick disconnect. For the grey water - that jug ( l love seeing the levels in my grey) is a wine storage jug off Amazon. Again I had to modify the lid to accept the RV flexible drain hose. Mods took me like an hour for all three lids. Go slow and wear a mask with all the plastic dust.

The sizes here are 1/2 inch. that's what I used. It's what fits on the USA (states) fixtures. Both the foot pump and the faucet nuts take 1/2 inch. If you heat the hose in hot water it will be quite flexible and conform to different sizes if close to that size.

@@michele2017promastertravel thank you so much. Yes same size here. Will follow you step 👍

@@oscarcortesrodriguez4445 good luck.

I think I used 1" because they had to go through the pump screw hole and then into the 1/2" wood to hold it in place.. Thanks for asking.

Yes it still works flawlessly. I really love the flow amount and ease of working. Recently I had to replace the screws that hold the pump to the floor board with bolts and washers because the screws pulled through the board from use.

It says Peace... I think, I bought it many years ago for my best friend Sue. She re-gifted it to me before she left.

yeah, that's why I put the year on my purchases.
