Facts are facts arent they? For the very reason that they cant be questioned or else it cant be classed as fact. Yet here we are talking of variables and close enough given this reason or that reason.
Yet according to facts written they often conflict with results seen........ Haha look at the england football club to begin witb lol  or even brexit etc etc and political so called facts

I知 guessing you create your pure water in the garage into a big tank then transfer it into the van ( well this is the system I last saw from a guy I bought some kit off) if you want hot water to begin the day would  a diesel hotbox in the garage be a good idea?  then you can pump through it into the van and you will have steaming hot water to start the day. If your tank is insulated it would stay nearly hot all day

Cheer's, think I'm gonna give it a shot some night. it's got 1 of them caravan type plugs on the cord so will cut it off and stick a 3 pin plug on it.

Thanks for the advice!
I take it you are at the wind up re sticking a 3 pin plug on it ;D
take it that's a bad idea??

its a good idea!

I was looking at the boiler in the house and wandering if I could somehow pump it from the ibc through the boiler and into the van.
I would need to tee into the incoming supply to the boiler and then into the outgoing and route that off to the tank, possibly a 100psi delivery pump may give enough flow or maybe something a little stronger that will be like the the tap pressure at home??

but that may possibly alter the tds, unless I was to run from the boiler through the di??

Paul Alan......DO NOT CUT THE PLUG OFF!!!!! That is a 16amp plug and cable and is what you need an electrician to wire you up from the house consumer unit to meet it. If the element is 3kw, which is standard then you risk burning you house down with a 13amp three pin plug!!

This initially sounds a good idea, but...... How much water and how fast can you run it through. Because i use a 150ltr transfer pump from ibc to van tank.
I would suspect to run from an ibc tank through a boiler or diesel heater into a van tank would take a very long time. Unless..... Using a booster pump the likes of  what van mounts use??

lots of us dont have garages (or the need for an RO due to very low tap tds)so its not a viable option.

i have heard of window cleaners using gas heaters to fill barrels at home so i dont see why you couldnt fill a tank if you so wish
price higher/work harder!

I use one similar to this one, it痴 rated at  21lt a min, so I would guess it will boil 21lts in a minute,  so would theoretically fill a 100gl tank in 25 minutes.
