Hi I've just got around to looking at the water tank and filling of it. Now as I have never had to do this before I am looking for some advice. This is what I have
I can get some tank cleaning liquid to make sure it's ok but not sure that that is the best way to fill it with a hose attachment.

Re: Water tank filling
Do people fill before they go away or do they fill up when they get there to save weight on the journey

Re: Water tank filling
Fill when you get there. Just carry a small water container for on the way.

Re: Water tank filling
I always have a full tank - there is no guarantee that there is potable water if you're stopping somewhere without water supply. As I never use campsites this is usually the case for me.

Re: Water tank filling
I always fill before leaving (from a reliable source). The added weight would be pretty negligible on fuel consumption. Plus, the last thing you want to be doing when you arrive at a campsite is start fannying around filling your water tank.
