In this video we're mounting an underslung grey water tank to our van, and doing all of the waste water plumbing.

We went with a 45l grey water tank, to go with the 85l fresh water tank we already have installed. And we're all installing two KUS water level gauges to monitor the water level in the tanks with float sensors. Handy!

We need to do our van waste plumbing to take the grey water from our sink, shower, and recirculating shower to the underslung tank. We're using 40mm domestic push fit pipe for that, with compression fittings. And a 28mm campervan waste tap to drain it all out again.

Jackson seemed to take a keen interest in this project! 😺
