Connecting Water Pipe

[DeeLee2024]

Hi All,

I'm new here and a beginner in Motorhomes.
I own a 1981 Cotswold Windrush and needs help connecting the water pipe.
I have a the Hitchman Aquaroll and wastemaster adn I bought these adapters (links below) to connect to it.

Its not the right size or maybe I'm not putting it on correctly.
Also mind my ignorance, can you also explain what the 3 outlets are for?

Any advise or ideas?

Thanks in advance!!

Those look like a caravan style outlet. There are two sizes of those.
I suspect if it is the same as a caravan then they will be one each for the kitchen sink, the shower and the bathrooms sink.
You need to get the right size convoluted pipe to work. The waste kit you linked is probably not going to fit as that is for more modern vans/caravans. I bought one of those for my 2000 caravan and it wouldn't fit.
I had to get the separate pipes and y connectors to get it to work.

PS: I just looked and it is 23mm and 28mm with the smaller ones I think being for older vehicles off the top of my head and without going out at this time of night.

From memory I bought 23mm pipe then adapters to 28mm with rubber bits then 28mm Y connectors. Bit of a franken whatsit but it worked.

Ok, Thanks a lot for your reply.
Am I understanding that these are all the outlets? If so, Would you know where I would find the pipe to connect to fresh water?

That is usually on the side of the van and generally looks a bit like a fuel filler cap. (DON'T put diesel in it )

If you are struggling perhaps some photos of the outside of the van?
