water fillers

[Jaap]

Have the old style water filler you know the ones you put the hose into to fill the tank

Yesterday whilst filling the tank Disaster! the filler, before the hose to the tank, fell apart and water everywhere

Has anyone else had this problem our am I the lucky one ?

Have two fillers and the second one is also coming apart

Can the fitting be repaired using sikaflex?

Any other suggestions

Thank you

Hi Jaap.

That's a bit of bad luck. Sikaflex might be a fix to get you out of trouble, but I would replace them as a long term solution.

Cheers

Pete.

Sikaflex is the answer. The glue fixing the fixings from the factory is useless. We have needed to sika it in 2 caravans,including our Kedron.

Plumbers glue should be ok. I hope you also used the primer - makes a big difference!
