Hey all. I have moved into a 2015 chapparal 360ibl fifth wheel from a 2005 open road TT. To fill the water tank on my open road I popped off the cap on the trailer stuck the garden hose in and filled til my heart was content. On the fifth wheel I have to attach the hose directly onto the trailer(screw it onto the trailer connector) then fill up. Works fine. But if we are out boondocking and I have to refill the trailer from jugs or a stream how can I do this. Where you hook the hose onto the trailer from the outside I screw the hose on then there are 2 valves where you set to either fill the tank. Operate the system or winterize. There is also a cap there and I have a connector and small hose to suck up antifreeze for when I winterize. I assume this setup is fairly common on new trailers. Just don't know what to do with it. Any advice is much appreciated.
You're likely going to have to get a 12v pump to pump from whatever container you're hauling water in.
