Water Hook Up

[Steveg]

Hi, I'm new to caravanning. Does anyone know if the Whale Truma Ultraflow Mains Water Hook Up Adaptor Connector is compatible with my Lunar Frystar 615 2006 caravan I have a mains water connection on the pitch

I have a 2013 Lunar Clubman - as standard, it came with the Truma Waterline mains water connection - I've tried it but the pressure limiter reduces the pressure significantly below that of the conventional submersible pump - so now I stick with the barrel and submersible pump and just use the waterline hose to top the barrel up each morning - that way I get full pressure in the caravan and don't have to carry any water.

Just a point ,Whale and Truma inlets are different to each other , the kit you have shown has the whale fitting and an adapter to fit a Truma inlet, if you have the truma inlet ( pistol type fitting) then you could by the truma only version a lot cheaper than the one you have shown.
I have never used on , preferring the internal float ball valve in the aquaroll. Whichever one you opt for remember to disconnect it when away from the van , I had a customer who didn't and a fitting inside the van let go and the van was flooded to a depth of 25-50mm, fortunately nearby caravanners spotted the water pouring out of the drop holes/door and turned off the supply

Thanks I will have a look at the trauma version

Thanks for the reply but my van is 2006 and I don't think it has truma waterline mains water connection only truma connection and water barrel and pump

I was suggesting you don't need it! Just retain the barrel / pump and use a hose from the pitch water point to top the barrel up each morning - cheaper and retains the full pump pressure.
