Hi all,
I'm a complete beginner and have a question about draining waste water. We bought our Carthago just before Xmas and have so far only spent two trial single nights in it as Xmas and New Year had to be got through and there is no where to store it near home and it is in a storage location 90 minutes away.
On our last one-night-stand there was a drain point on our pitch but even with the 4ft extension hose that came with the van I couldn't get the waster water to reach. Then we tried the drive-over waste point but because of the limited corner access we couldn't get the van in the right position for that either. (I'm still a beginner when trying to maneuver something the size of an HGV too)
I thought I could get a standard extension hose with a bit more reach so I didn't think to measure the hose or the waste pipe and now searching online I don't see anything with the sort of diameter I think I need - around 4 inches or so.
Has anyone out there been here before and can tell me what I need?
Just to set the scene and let you know of the steepness of my imminent learning curve - the plan is to set off into Europe long term travelling in April!
All advice gratefully received.
