Previous thread on tap connectors - cannot find it? (1 Viewer)

[PeeAndDee]

Hi
We leave for a long holiday soon and trying to make sure that we have everything we need, we have been advised to take a couple of different tap connectors for filling the water tank.
I have previously seen a thread advising on the type of Hozelick (or similar) connectors that may be useful but can I find the thread now - no chance.
So would appreciate any advice that the experts can give us.
Thanks in advance.
Peter

Previous 'thread' on tap connectors - no pun intended?!
I found this: http://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/water-tap-connectors.22435/
Also, this is what is generally used in the UK and abroad and your water hose will click-push on to it - think I've come across some larger diameter tap threads in France but this connector does most. Probably best to buy in the country you're visiting if you do get a problem.
Enjoy your travels,

Just got out first motorhome and it came with a hook up lead. What else do I need to use campsites & French aires. Hoses? Tap adaptors etc?

Thanks

Is this the one?

Peter,
Something like these will do most taps we have encountered on Aires & sites in France & Spain.

If you have room in your MH, also advise carrying a watering can.

We are at the other end of Cumbria to you near Penrith but if you wanted a ride up here we could have a brew and talk through what we know of MHing in France & Spain.

The only problem I encounter is those French chromium plated smooth taps in some situations. I carry one of those hose connectors that has a jubilee clip attached to tighten it around the tap, still get problems with it slipping sometimes though.

Hi Barry
Would be good to meet up some time over a brew but unfortunately our free time is really limited before we go away so maybe after when we have some stories of our own to bore you with.
