Sink Water Pump

[foggygolf]

Hi all

Probably a daft question but here goes.

I've got a sink for my van from a friend of a friend, it's unused but doesn't have a pump (assuming they have pumps). It's made by Suter and has a nozzle on the end of the head which you turn for water however all i have underneath the sink is a clear pipe and a waste pipe so the question is what do i need to make it work??

Any advice greatly appreciated as always.

Most sink taps of this type, have a built in switch that operates the pump as the tap is opened. You should see a couple of wires coming out of the bottom of the tap mechanism.
I suppose you could have a seperate switch but it would be a bit of a pain first opening the tap then pressing a switch to operate the pump.

Hi Martin, yet again great help! I'll take a look in the morning.

Many thanks

There are two types of pump available, inline that fit in line between your water container and tap or submersible ones that you just drop into a water container and sucks the water out.

As said the tap should contain a micro switch that you should hear when turning the tap and have two wires exiting the tap/switch. Sorry to be repetitive.
