Getting there Lads, Today I installed my 250ltr Tank into my trailer, and I decided to insulate it ready for the winter months ahead, the insulating boards are only about 3/4'' thick so I doubled them up except the bottom. sealed all the Joints with British gas Joint sealing tape (don't know were that came from  ) and made a little insulated lid, but I don't expect that to last long  need a way now to insulate the pipe you see coming from the tank.
Pump,hose & battery will be removed every night along with the backpack, all for security reasons, rented a garage but that won't be ready for another month, so need to take precautions now.

Hi Jeff,it`s getting there mate,great idea to insulate it,
Have you put water in the tank yet to see if the outlet leaks,because thats a mistake i made when i put my tank in my van all set up then filled it to the top then drip drip drip  ,so i use some ptfa tape and silicone and it`s dry as a bone  ,Gaz

[jeff1]

Hi Gaz
Yes I'm getting there, I havent tried it with water yet, but if you have a look I  have left a little cut-out section with some insulation bunged in there.
I have used ptfe tape so hope I don't have any problems. If I really need to the whole box section will lift off the Tank.

One thing that was pointed out to me was I would not be able to see the water level. Jouk 45 pointed me to a site and from there, I was able to design myself a low water indicator using a magnet and reed switch, at least until I get used to the amount of water I use, so will get busy next week and build one for myself.

any chance of showing us this site too?  i'd love to learn more of this Low water indicator.

Bear in mind shaun, this is only a switch and does not include the electronics.

joe I put all the parts together today from the workshop total cost NOTHING  
Saying that I don't know how much my grandson will charge me for the little rubber ball I'm after, that will probably cost me a fiver because its still attached to his bat on a long piece of elastic he said Little darlings :
