Can anyone give me some advice on water filters for my caravan. I have been looking at Inline filters to put on the inlet hose. Are there any that I should steer away from, or things to look out for?

Caravan Polish

I have been doing a few maintenance jobs on the van over the last few weeks and have decided to give the outside a bit of a spruce up. The sides of my van are aluminium and I use regular car wash and it seems to get most of the dirt off. The front and the rear is fibreglass and is a bit dull from the sun and was think...

Diesel heater
(Preview)
Our Diesel heater works fine but cuts off about 30min after startup. Will decreasing set temp (30) help. Or maybe green fuel line collapses. Intake all clear, pump sounds fine. Timer not set either. Any advice appreciated.

We recently spent a week at Carnarvon Gorge (our second ever caravan trip) in an unpowered site with lots of trees above us so our solar input to our 3 x 110w roof panels (feeding 3 x 120amp batteries) was limited. Over 5 days I got the batteries down to 11.4 volts so was getting close to empty. I run a 12vol...

diesel heater- 2,3,5kw...which is ideal?
(Preview)
I thought I'd tell you of my experiences with two Chinese diesel heaters. I've had a 3kw diesel heater for 3 years. It was marketed on ebay as a 3kw but most of us are aware that this is a marketing ploy, heaters that are 3 or 4kw as advertised are likely to be 5kw heaters. All was good until one day recently I...
