Thank you guys !
Interesting to see all the different options! We have a 10 gallon water tank with an electric pump. It runs mostly on solar and we don’t use it for drinking so 10 gallons lasts us a while.
Great ideas - trying to narrow down my plan....
Some pretty good ideas if only I had room.
Great video. Our builder is starting in September so it was good to see the different possibilities you provided.
Thank you. It really helps my to see them all together like this. Nice to see so many options.
Thanks, Some good ideas. I like the foot pump one.
Water is the primary thing! My own van build in the works totally incorporates a large 40 gals capacity, hot water tank included, and grey tank underneath on a ball valve. This isn’t hard to do since it’s just 12 volt to empty, and I feel confident about staying out 2 weeks off grid.
Was that a 14 gallon stainless steel sink that Jayme had? That would have been good to see, great info! Thx
Yes - there's a link in the description 😎
thank you for this video! I'm trying to figure out a better water system right now. Would you mind showing or explaining how you secure the berkey to the wall? I'm considering a similar set up but I'm having trouble figuring out how to secure it while I'm driving. I already store my crock pot express in the sink otherwise I'd put it in there!
I just made a couple of straps and screwed them into the wall.
@@TheGalavan ok cool, thanks!
✌😎👍
👍🏻❤️🤗
I'm nowhere near convinced that a Berkey is worth fifty bucks but I do know it's a huge waste of space. On the rare occasions that I do filter my water I only trust MSR to add the job. I use the "direct delivery" method of supplying water. I twist the lid off a gallon jug and pour. No batteries, switches or pumps to take up space or fail!!
