Van set up help

[True Blue cleaning]

So I've been working part time with a trolley system for a while now last night it starts playing up on me... So now I'm thinking it's time to get the van set up. I'm only going for a 250ltr tank as I'm limited to space what else do I need? Obviously a pump 100psiwith filter? A controller in the van, reel, and id like to be able to control the flow and turn off whilst cleaning. Do you guys have a remote that switches the water off that you can carry round? 

I'm going to buy the water from a station 

Thanks in advance

Yes, its called a one shot. often bought with the controller. I wear mine on a cord round my neck and just press for on and off. works fine. Most of the stockists will sell it, though I needn't advertise one over the other as Im fair sure they will be all pretty much of a muchness. Used mine near two years without issue, must've saved thousands of litres of water (and trips to and fro from van)

You can have a valve on your hose reel or microbore or just disconnect. You can also have a univalve, all of them will stop your water, or as the cheapskates do just bend your microbore ?

I use a univalve as part timer mentioned, cost about £40 and worth every penny. If you are on a budget try one of these https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F222924774993 , not perfect but does a job.

Thank you everyone. Another thing to add to the list is a battery... Not going far without one

Connect this to your tank and away you go.

 No need for a uni-valve or similar just nip the pole hose with your forefinger and thumb and as above a pumpbox is ideal and can easily be removed from the van if needed and also portable as in moving from one vehicle to another

The genie in a box would I be able to use the one shot controller with that?
