Refilling fresh water tank when dry camping

are you talking about the pipe coming off of what appears to be on the inlet side of the pump (see my set up in the picture above. if i unscew that cap and connect water to it, it seems that it would go strait to the MH sinks and not fill up my tank. is this how yours is set up?

With all that insulation in there I can't tell for sure. But based on what you are saying that sounds right. When you turn the pump on you will "fill the sink". The other step is to switch the fill/city water valve to fill just like you do when you fill your RV with a hose. When all done put the two valves back and your good to go.

Ever forget to switch that fill valve off? When you turn on the pump does it continue to run and never build preasure. That is becasue it recirculates the water in your lines from the tank, to the pump, thru the water lines and back into the tank again. So when you use the winterizer inlet you pull water from your portable tank and put back into your RV tank.

BTW, I have a couple of those colapsible 5 gal clear plastic jugs. They store real nice when done. It also happens to be that the spickot on the jugs is the same diameter as the winterizer fill line. You can get a nipple to addapt to that inlet and use the right size tubing if you use the jug, otherwise unscrew the top and let the hose suck it in.
