Title: Transfer hose
Post by: Steven Biggs on May 17, 2021, 04:06:49 pm: Any recommendations for a transfer hose . Just need to get 200 litres from a water butt in the garden , into the tank in the van . Gravity wont do it . Unless any other ideas .

I use thick 1" 1/4 clear plastic hose from my local diy shop
