Why is the water pump mounted so far forward from the tank and hot water heater in this van build? Does this affect performance or installation efficiency?

Hi Pat,

The water pump is only about 3 to 4 feet away from the water tank and hot water heater. We had to mount it outside the enclosure due to space limitations and placed it in the kitchen galley area. This location allows easier access for maintenance.

According to the manufacturer, as long as the pump is less than 6 feet above the intake, it will operate properly. You have some flexibility in placement, but it's ideal to keep the pump as close to the water source as possible within the manufacturer’s specifications. Great question, hope this helps.
