When I started I drew a diagram of the chain and it helped with the basics - there's obviously more to it that that but I hope it can help

Outside tap - ro - water butt - submersible pump and hose - van mount tank - pump inlet - pump oulet - di - hose reel - pole

plenty of thread tape on connectors - use decent ones -
fit the pump with the hose connectors at the bottom or lain flat - if they are on the top and you get a leak they could foul the electrics

use stop connectors wherever you are likely to have to break the hose - to pole etc

you might not need to pump your water if it's a smaller tank - you could just fill smaller cans and fill the tank manually

yep makes look simpler when you break it down!although this system works by filling the in van tank with tap water-then in purifies it before it sends it through the pump and up the pole.is it stil the same process you described? cheers for the help!

Sounds like it - are you just using di or is there an ro on the van

di i think? theres only the resin cylinder to purify the water

Spiffing - then just follow the chain form the van tank part - you probably will get a couple of leaks till you suss it out but that's all part of the fun

Good luck
