Will they fit square mixer taps as these are the hardest to work with.

Glynn do you use these, to feed your T/M if so don't you have a fresh water tank?

if not I'd be interested in your views on working like this because I'm think of leaving out the fresh tank in my next van.

Hi Mike,
I run a TM and have never fitted a fresh water tank. Leaves space and save on your petrol. Water is heavy.
Most people now days have an outside tap, or at worse you have to connect to a sink tap. I carry a suppy of connectors and always wrapped a towel around the tap/connector. If the connector gives you have a fail safe with the wrapped towel.
Never had a problem, been during this way for over 5 years

Mike,
I would not entertain not using a fresh water tank, it saves you so much time its untrue.
Ignore all comments from people who say dont carry water, till you have carried it you wont know just hoe convenient it is.
I only connect to taps if I run out, which we all sometimes do.

Cant use tap water direct in my area, as its very hard. I have a softner on board, saves having to descale t/m.
