underfloor water tanks
Can some one out there please tell me. If any T25`s had a tank underneath? As I`m after one if they are out there. To use for waste.

The waste tank on Westies is just behind the LHF wheel. Not a lot of use, probably, if you're RHD, though - as the sink'd need to be blocking half the slider.
Gunzl sells 'em, I'm sure. But it's probably a lot cheaper and easier to just find something that'll fit and work without worrying about it being "T25".

Re: underfloor water tanks
CAK tanks do a load of different tanks, even T25 specific ones

Re: underfloor water tanks
Thanks to you all, for your advice. I`ve had a quick look at Loydys Cak tanks website. And I think I`ll get 2 tanks off them. One either side. Fresh water on off side to put pump into. And waste on nearside. But how will gravity drain water from sink on off side to go across radiator pipes, heater pipes and oil cooler pipes?
Maybe run waste pipe under rock n roll. I hate the masive autohome water tank under rock n roll. Or may be give them a bell (Cak tanks) see if I can put two tanks on offside?

Probably better to put the waste tank on the other side, and have the fresh water pumped across?
FWIW, Westy put the fresh tank under the cupboards next to the bed.

Seems pretty straight forward to me.
you pump from the furthest tank and gravity feed the nearest.
Why do you need a waste tank, are you traveling abroad?

If you've got a sink, you need a waste tank, surely? Pouring your sink drainings all over the pitch is hardly a neighbour-friendly activity - if you rolled up to a pitch, and found bits of toothpaste, rice, veg or whatever all over it, you'd find a different spot, wouldn't you? I would.
I'm intrigued as to why this might be different at a UK site to a foreign one, though?

If like me you don't use campsites then I don't need a waste tank
if you do use a campsite then use a bucket or the site facilities if they have them
Tent dwellers don't have waste tanks, they do what I do or use the site facilities...all part of the camping life to me
I can't see the point of lugging a load of water about that you can tip in a drain soon after it's gone down the plug hole
BTW Don't you scrape off your plate before washing it?... rice, veg, toothpaste in the water? good lord you might as well lick them clean!
