by:

The first one I ordered split down the middle upon filling it up and it flooded my van. I probably over pressurized it. It was out of warranty. Because of the size restriction I ordered another one which has been working okay since.



by:

Tank was damaged in shipping. The side is dented and the seal is broken, there for it will leak.

Do you have a question about this RV Fresh Water Tank?
  • Replacement Fresh Water Tank for Travel Trailer
    Hey Charla! The water tanks that we currently offer, like the Valterra RV Water Tank - Non-Toxic - ABS Plastic # R8042 are all hand pump use only. I'm assuming you have an electric water pump so these would not be compatible. We also have no way of knowing what size water tank you have on the trailer. I recommend reaching out to a local RV dealership to find a tank that is rated for use with electric water pumps.

  • Replacement Water Tank For a 2000 Coleman Fleetwood Utah Camper
    Hey, Glenn! We don't have a wide range of tanks but we do have some! I tried to search to see what size tank you have and the most I could pull up was that it "should" be a 26 gallon. The closest that we have is a 24 gallon Valterra tank, part # R8048. You will want to make sure it will fit in the same space, this one is 48" long x 8" wide x 16" tall. If the dimensions don't work, you may have to go with a smaller tank. Here are a few other options: Front Runner Water Tank 17.7 gallons...

  • How To Mount The Valterra RV Water Tank On A Trailer
    The Valterra RV Water Tank # R8042 has 6 ports (3 on each side) to allow for different ways to mount your tank. One hole is already cut out with a red plug but the rest would require you to drilling out the hole before attaching your plumbing to the tank. To mount the tank most RV manufacturers just fabricate a bracket to mount the tank to the frame. On the trailers I work on here there's usually a large U-shaped strip of metal around the tank that's simply bolted onto the frame with...

  • Can Electric Pump be Used With Valterra RV Water Tank
    An electric water pump should not be used for filling or pulling water out of the Valterra RV Water Tank # R8042, according to the manufacturer. This is designed by the manufacturer as a "low pressure application only." I have added a link to a video review of this tank for you to check out, as well as a link to our entire selection of fresh water tanks, which have a range of 4-1/2 to 36 gallon capacities.

  • How To Attach Fittings To The Valterra RV Water Tank
    The Valterra RV Water Tank # R8042 being solvent weldable simply means that you can glue the fittings onto to the tank using the Valterra ABS Solvent Cement # A05-0303. To install a valve or hose on this tank you would simply need to use the existing opening or pop out a different one to fit your application and use the Solvent to glue it into place in the opening.

  • Can The Valterra RV Water Tank Be Mounted Horizontally Or Vertically?
    Yes, the Valterra RV Water Tank # R8042 can be mounted vertically or horizontally. Additionally, doing this would also make the height 8" tall, like you mention.

  • Replacement Fresh Water Tank For A 2003 Coleman Bayside Pop-Up Camper
    The water tanks that we currently offer, like the Valterra RV Water Tank - Non-Toxic - ABS Plastic # R8042 are all hand pump use only and would not be compatible if you were using a water pump. If you do have a water pump you want to reach out to Coleman directly or to a local RV dealership as they should be able to get a replacement fresh water tank that is rated for use with electric pumps. If you do have a hand pump setup then I've attached a link to our tank options below as well...

  • Needing Exterior Shower And Water Tank For 2004 Sun Valley Road Runner XL 310RLS RV
    We have exterior shower boxes for RVs but we would need the dimensions of your space to recommend one that will fit.

  • How to Pick Out Replacement Water Tank and Axle for Trailer
    To pick out a replacement axle we need three pieces of information. We need the capacity (in your case 3,500), we need the distance from hub face to hub face, and we need the distance from spring seat center to spring seat center. Keep in mind we don't have every axle configuration so you may have to find a local trailer shop to you who can order axles. For example, the part # T3584F-EZ-8974 is a 3,500 lb axle that has a distance of 89 inches from hub face to hub face and 74 inches between...
