Title: Utility Bay water
Post by: El_Dorado on April 13, 2012, 05:19:44 pm
I have a new to us '94 U-240. It has no provisions for an exterior faucet and I would like to find out if anyone has done such a mod.......if so, any hints?

Cheap - Put a Y valve on the camp faucet with a separate hose attached.  Instant outside faucet!  ;D

We too have a 94 U-240.  We have a faucet in the bay, and it is handy for washing out the nasty hose when a faucet is not available.  I have used it for filling buckets, washing hands, and i think we washed the dog with it once.

I think it was installed by Foretravel.  It is on the left side wall, but I don't know exactly what it is plumbed to.

We are the boondock kind of campers, so the "Y" while good for campgrounds is good, it  is not what we need. 

oldmattb... can you take a picture for me?  Please...

If you add an external faucet to your coach water system, remember to include a backflow preventer.  The factory installed faucet on our coach has one.
