Components for Managing Your Water on the Road

After the easing of Covid restrictions, we know its important to find bliss in finally getting out of the house and holidaying here in our wonderful country. At Dural Irrigation we have created a collection of products to ensure the best water solutions for your home away from home, including rain harvesting.

To make it easy for you, we have broken up each application into categories below.

WATER & RAIN HARVESTING:

Lately, since the recent boom of Australian outback travelling and camping, the current trend is harvesting rainwater to keep your tanks full! Especially with all the recent rain we've been having in NSW, we were able to track down a fantastic product that will harvest rainwater into your tank, straight from your awning.

The RSG Accessories Rain Saver Gutter Kit utilises your tarp or the awning on your caravan to replicate a rooftop rainwater harvesting system using a few plastic clips, a bucket, a short hose and a small piece of filtration media sheet!

By catching the rainwater dripping off your awning, you'll be able to avoid heavy puddling and a natural trench surrounding the entryway to your caravan or RV.

FILTRATION FOR DRINKING WATER:

Puretec CR20 Series Inline Filtration Systems are designed to connect up easily to click-on garden hose fittings which are readily available in most locations.  These inline systems are available as dual action filtration, with a large contaminant removal capacity or the silver plus series cartridge to remove taste, odour, chemicals and inhibits bacterial growth.  In addition, a water treatment in your water tank, such as Puretec TankSafe, in conjunction with your inline filtration system is a further guarantee your water will be safe to drink straight from your kitchen faucet. 

To keep you and your family safe while travelling, it is super important you have a separate hose for drinking water that is of food grade standard.  Drinking water hose will not contaminate your water like a standard garden hose would. Our 12mm Drinking Hose is available to purchase either by the meter or in 20m coils.

COMPACT PUMPS:

These days, you generally won't find that hand pumps are being fitted to new RV's and caravans, you'll find now that 12V or low voltage water pumps are installed instead. We have a large range of self-priming, low voltage pumps ideal for maximizing pressure and flow to your water outlets. 

For a more robust and powerful water transfer pump, the Bianco Vulcan 1.6HP Toolbox Petrol Pump is perfect. Weighing only ten kilograms (10kg), this compact, electricity free pump comes with a handle making it light and very easily transportable. This 2 stroke pump outputs a maximum of 100 litres per minute, and a maximum head of 35m. Perfectly suited for use with a 25mm (1") Pre-Assembled Suction Kit.

DRAINAGE & GREY WATER:

Most larger mobile homes, caravans and RV's are usually standard equipped with a full bathroom, laundry and sink, with a separate potable (drinking) water and grey (non-drinking) water tank. Our most common enquiry from customers is hose kit that can easily attach to your main drainage pipe. 

We have designed a preassembled 2m Sullage Hose Kit that can be connected and extended on using the included quick-connect, poly camlock fittings, creating a longer hose run as needed. Available as a start up kit or an extension kit. 

PORTABLE SOURCES OF POWER:

Most people, when making the choice to purchase or hire a caravan and hit the road, see it as an opportunity to unplug from the world...literally, some folks love the idea of going caveman-style with no power and no phone.
