how to use fold-a-tank, dry camping water supply, fresh water refill, no water rv, fall camping rv

[@stevemacedo771]

We purchased the Camping World one and was completely dissatisfied. Just got the smell from the plastic out of my tank. We returned it with no issues. Reminded me of when we had a waterbed and the smell when you has to drain it. Just ordered the Aqua tank. Got my fingers crossed. Thank you for the video

Yes!! The waterbed smell. Although we sanitized our bladder, we still had that awful smell. We are going to use some bleach each time we have to use it to wash it out and hope that smell goes away. We have had to fill our fresh water tank without it since and the smell didn’t remain so I’m not worried about the stench transferring to the tank itself. But we just couldn’t stand that smell. Let us know how your new one smells, or doesn’t smell when you get it or if you just have to do the same initial sanitizing and that takes care of it. We may have to switch now that we have time. Thanks for watching!!!

Great video, just bought the aqua 2 30 gallons last week. Going boondocking Thanksgiving week and going to use it. I also have the 303rls with the siphon built in. Thanks again 👍

That is awesome. Let us know how it works for you. I know all the different fittings came with our Fold-A-Tank but I couldn’t figure out which fittings came with the AquaTank2. We’ve seen some videos where owners have purchased additional fittings. Did you have to? What fittings came with yours? We concluded that the reason ours drained slower than desired is because of the flow restriction through the shut off valve. So if we were really pressed for time, we would probably remove it while transferring to the RV. Good Luck and Safe travels!

That’s awesome. If the water bladder is close enough to the fresh water tank will the water bladder water gravity feed from hose to fresh water tank? Or is a 12v imperative?

[@CompassRoadz]

It will use gravity feed. However, our Reflection only uses the water pump to fill the water tank. Our Columbus only used gravity. So I guess it depends on your RV. Thanks for watching!

Saw a guy using one and I bought mine from Camping World. Looked like a good idea. Has taken SEVERAL fill/flushes (use vinegar) to get rid of the vinyl stink in my entire RV! I've gone back to carrying a 30gl drum. I also found myself patching it like some kids toy boat that constantly was getting punctured. I should've sent it back to Camping World. Holding onto it for an emergency. But its a piece of crap! Highly, DO NOT recommend.

We haven’t used it much except for the winter season where the park shuts down the water. We haven’t experienced a bad smell though after using a bit of vinegar. Thanks for watching!

I patched (several times) the bladder and kept it as a back-up. Yesterday, T threw the piece of crap in the trash. Wasted $100 on that thing. Sticking with the drum. Much better and I just empty the water and remove it from the bed of the truck when I need the space. When I hitch up the fifth wheel for travel, I can easily put the drum in the trailer. It’s light weight and fits easily in the doorway. Happy n Safe travels!

That’s actually a really good idea. I assume that it is easier to let dry out. There would be no taste or smell in the water.
