did it last night myself  ;D happened a few times cos i fill straight from the tap so it only takes 30/40 mins & i always watch telly & forget.  best thing is drill 5mm holes in both foot wells so it drains then stick a little heater in & keep changing its position for a couple hours then just have your car heater on full blast aimed at your feet.  be dry in a day or 2 then smother the carpet in shake n vac a couple of times. you need to park on a slope somewhere to drain it though.

this would be the equivalent of a carpet cleaner saying .... Why not use a bit of windolene? ........

i'm glad windowlene works for you

James are the connectors on your hose and tank hozelock type ones??

if so, try to put the female connector on the hose and the male to the tank... that way if they are not connected or become disconnected the female being on the hose end will stop the water coming out....
thats the way i have it it was the hose that came out off the connector gonna see if there is something i can do to stop this from happening again

If there's any chance of the tank over filling simply park on a slight hill, facing upwards. That way the water will run out of the back doors. Simples  ;D
lol  i did think about this last night i should park it on a ramp

can you do as someone suggested change the connectors round so your tap hose has a female hozeloc end stop so when it blows off water flow stops.
Had a few teething probs with my brodex 250ro but soon got them to put right  ;D

well i have a female connector on the hose then that connects to the male bit on the tank but the female connector did not come off the male connector it was the hose that came out of the female connector if that makes sense lol because after  the use its been getting it has probably came lose over time and then it just shoot out so now im checking that its screwed up tide on the hose every time before i fill up. thanks for the help though avo  :)
