RV FEATURE
LAUNDRY
We use the ‘wool wash’ setting on our washing
machine for our clothes and linen as it doesn’t
require an extra rinse cycle. A hand-wash in the
collapsible bucket is a regular occurrence when
water is limited.
Other times, we run water through hoses and use
the 12V pump straight from a river or other water
source through our bathroom window and into
the washing machine.
TOP TIPS
• Catch your grey water in a bucket
for reuse.
• Carry 20L of spare drinking water
for emergencies.
• Plan destinations around the
availability of water.
• Use water-saving practices where
possible for personal hygiene.
• If you have kids, keep the water pump
switch off when not in use – this will
prevent little hands from wasting water.
• Ensure you have water-saving tapware
in the bathroom and kitchen.
• Use natural water sources
wherever possible.
• Use non-potable water for things
like laundry.

TOILET
We use a spray bottle (I have my heavy-duty
hairdressing one on board, but any spray bottle will
do) to give the toilet bowl a pressurised, targeted
clean after use. We restrict ‘flushing’ using the
AUX switch and button on the toilet, as quite a lot
of water is used with each press, and the kids tend
to flush multiple times after each use!!
