Water Pumps & Accessories

A camper van water system typically centres around a 12V water pump, which draws water from a tank or container and delivers it to your tap or shower. Most modern setups use either submersible pumps for simple systems or inline pressure pumps for more advanced installations. Pressure pumps automatically activate when a tap is opened, maintaining consistent flow and improving usability—similar to household plumbing.

Simple options like submersible 6–12V pumps are ideal for basic setups and portable water containers, offering a compact and cost-effective solution. For more advanced systems, inline pumps such as the Liberty Max 7L and 10L 12V water pumps provide higher flow rates and pressurised performance, making them perfect for permanent installations with sinks and taps.

To support a complete system, the range also includes essential accessories such as expansion vessels (accumulator tanks), which help smooth water flow and reduce pump cycling, improving system efficiency and lifespan. Connectors, push-fit fittings and hoses allow you to build a secure and leak-free plumbing system, while inline filters help maintain clean water supply throughout your camper van.

External components such as Whale Easi-Slide water inlet and outlet points provide convenient access for filling tanks and connecting external water supplies, making them ideal for campsite use. These fittings are designed for durability and ease of installation, ensuring a professional finish and long-term reliability.

A well-designed camper van water system doesn’t need to be complex—most setups include a fresh water container, a 12V pump, pipework and a tap, making them easy to install and maintain. Whether you’re building a simple weekend van or a fully equipped off-grid setup with hot water and pressurised plumbing, this range provides the components needed to create a dependable and efficient system.
