Filling your Aquaroll

Bought one some 10 years ago, the warden I think at Hawes, had a side line making them. It also incorporates a toggle on the string, which you slide tight on the tap to hold it in place. I have seen them on sale in a few receptions since. Unless you have some spare tube, probably as cheap as making one yourself.

Much better than the tube, which was always blowing off and soaking me.😂

Get it from a plumber who installs drainage for washing machines as they always have offcuts.

Purchased similar from Burrs Country Park site if I recall correctly. Only cost a couple of quid but the best method yet of filling and Aquaroll.

I carry a couple of different lengths. Although most CMC taps are roughly the same height, they are often at different heights on other sites. CCC taps are generally quite high.

How difficult can it be to fill an aquaroll .......connect hose to tap ,put hose in aquaroll ,turn on tap and fill ,wait till aquaroll is full and turn off tap ,remove hose and tap fitting and wheel away aquaroll 

chatting to fellow member who is waiting for you to finish is optional 

Yep, made one of them donkeys years ago from some left over water pipe. Mine was in two telescopic pieces so was adjustable and collapsed for ease of packing in the van.

I'm amazed that people pay good money to buy them ready made, tbh.

I think the sterilising wipe is a bit OTT unless you’re going to keep it in a similarly sterilised container. How do you sterilise the inside of the pipe which is the bit in contact with the water? 

Years ago same here think this method is an old & trusted way

Yep, I've been using a home made pipe for years now. To answer HD, another advantage is that it fits over any type of tap fitting. Gone are the days when you had to carry a few different tap fittings to connect your hose.
