Hi in this video I fit my fresh water tank but it not that straight forward I need to alter the tank level probe to fit as its to big, its a struggle to fit the 75ltr tank under the van but we persevere and get it slung to the bottom of the van
I install the filler cap in the side of the van, then it's just a matter of piping up the system and testing until the drain line splits sending the whole contents of the tank down the drain! another lesson learned I guess

I've seen the state of CAK Tank's website, so it's not a surprise that they didn't bother putting any effort into the instructions either.

The tanks are great but the other items are very poor very disappointing

[@jaimebell7935]

I was getting a bit of a sweat on watching you put that tank in!!

[@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife]

It was hard work Jamie the straps kept falling off 😁

[@jaimebell7935]

Looked it, done a good job though

[@edhass6774]

Thanks again, I'm going for the same set up/ location, not looking forward to it 🤣

[@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife]

Don't use the pipe supplied it's very poor I ended up using plastic pipe for mine 😁👍

[@alexholmes3]

Interesting the filler pipe split, I've just got our tanks through the post and our filler pipe is split aswell

[@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife]

It's rubbish stuff I ended up fitting 2" plastic pipe all the way

[@simonroberts-davies4162]

Have you installed a breather pipe to the fresh water tank?

[@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife]

There was no need too as the tank is vented

[@2002odella]

What size tank did you use ?

[@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife]

70l it lasts us 4/5 days showering each day
