Hmmm depends where the water is being pumped from... If its a underfloor tank , most use a submersible pump in the tank....

it has not got a tank, it just has a pipe coming out the back of the tap at the minute

So where is the pump going to get the water from?

Lets say your like the rest of us and can't do magic, then your going to want to install a fresh water tank. Look up CAK tanks and then choose one of their many options.....

Then ask about a pump

What you need is a Whale submersible pump.....usually operated by a micro-switch on the tap body which turns on the pump only when the tap is opened. However, it could be wire to a push button switch:

got a whale submersible pump ,
and for now i am just going to have 25gallon container outside the bus untill i work out my interior design

I have one of these under the van and a water proof 12v socket under as well. It is 12mm so you need some reducers and a bit of 12mm hose if all your gear is 10mm.

On the submersible pump I have 1m of hose and a 12 v socket. I have the same sort of water container as you and have a waste one as well. No need to carry heavy water around with you ar have to move the camper to fill it up. Gives the kids something to do as well.

thanks mate,, i never even thought about a socket
thanks for the links, else i would not have known what i was looking for

Just wire it in line with the switch for the tap and bobs ya uncle. I think towsure do a double outlet with waste as well but I didnt see the point as you just stick it in a container.

got the tap working, got the pump, switch and waste pipe in, all working fine
thanks for the advise
