Hi all,
Wondering what pumps people use to transfer pure water from storage tank at premises to van? I use a small submersible pump that can fill 300L in 25-30 mins but obviously could do with a faster, more powerful pump. Can anyone recommend or link me please?
TIA
James

 
Hi there, I use a submersible pump with a high litres per hour output.

If you want to cut the fill time down use a bigger bore transfer hose say inch and a half. 

That's where you will get a faster transfer rate from say using garden hosepipe.

I could fill 300 litres in say 5 mins.

You may have to cut away part of the collar of your storage tank to get the pump in the tank. I had to do that. Most decent pumps seem to be the same diameter. It’s a bit of a pain but I used a dremel to do that.
