Hi has anyone used this and if so can you let me know your thoughts. Are there other ways to connect two aqua rolls so you don't run out of water. Thanks

Thanks but I don't have a super pitch- no water hook up for me.
In relation to the other replies, it was more a question of how it works. I've no idea how to make one. I wouldn't be concerned about the filing two at the same time, as for us it's just a question of filling up number one as often as we do now along with the waste. The reason I'm interested is that our shower isn't very practical for me as I have very long thick hair so on the days I wash it the aqua roll runs out or I have to turn off midway whilst I shampoo condition etc.
1) Fill Aquaroll and place the pump in it.
2) Fill second Aquaroll and place next to first.
3) When the first Aquaroll is empty swap pump to second
4) Re-fill first Aquaroll
5) Empty Wastemaster
No additional expense and you will always have water available
If you have to turn off your shower water taps midway then the easy solution is to buy a chrome 'trigger shower head' and replace with your existing shower head. That way you just leave your taps set at the right temperature, stop and start the water flow by use of the trigger thus saving water. It's much cheaper than 'Aqua-Connect' and you can keep it if you ever change your caravan as well so it's a permanent investment. I bought one and found it much better than a standard shower head.

Ummm. The time it runs out is in the shower so would have to run outside in my birthday suit and change it over. Think other campers may have a view on that and be put off their breakfast.

Love this suggestion. Never heard of them. Where do they come from.
Just enter a search for 'Caravan / Motorhome Trigger Shower Head' and you will find several for sale but have a good look as they can vary in price. However, there are several on Ebay for sale.

Tango55 ..mentioned this to the OH..You just made her day and my life easier, so a Huge Thank You
Your'e welcome 'pompeyjon' and glad the info was useful. It's always an issue about saving water if you are not on a super pitch especially when it comes to taking a shower. It's the time when you consume more water so the hot water slowly gets colder as the hot water tank slowly replenishes with cold water plus the pump is running more constant which if not on electric hook up will run the battery down quicker. The trigger shower head is ideal because it not only saves on water keeping the hot water for longer due to the flow being turned on and off as required but also saves on valuable battery power as well which is essential for those who attend rallies whereby more often than not you have to be self sufficient.
Agree about being self reisileint . Just reiterate ...made my day We are very cautious about baterry use and will not ever get a generator as we...even in a van believe we do actually camp I hasten to ad not posh camp with the kithen sink Why camp with house But thank you
Very expensive for a few components that can be bought for
less than £10.
my caravan is getting on a bit now so when i use the hot water that's in tank, the hot water is used up and that's it until the water heats up again.
Are the more up to date systems capable of heating the water constantly as it is supplied from the aquaroll
Tango55 the trigger head sounds like a good Idea to me.
