Expert Answers about RV Water Inlets


  • Replacement RV City Water Inlet Caps Compatibility
  • The Replacement Rubber Cap # 37262105 is designed to fit over a brass city water inlet like the RV City Water Inlet # 372321-B-36-A.

  • City Water Inlet With 1/2 Inch FPT & Close to 3 Inch Flange

  • How to Determine Water Hatch Inlet for RV
  • While we do have replacement water hatch inlets available (but not gas hatches), there are none for specific RVs so we wouldn't know if they are the same as newer models. In order to determine the correct water inlet you just need to know your water line and cut out size. For example, if it was a city water inlet and you had a 1/2" MPT tank connection and your cut out was 5-7/8" wide x 4-3/4" high you would use the Valterra City Water Inlet and Lockable Hatch for RVs # A01-2004VP.

  • Valterra Dual RV Water Inlet Recommendation for 5-1/2" Wide x 3-1/4" High Cutout
  • The Valterra Dual RV Water Inlets # A01-2001VP is going to be the closest thing we have to fitting your cutout area, so your best bet is to make your cutout a little larger to accommodate this fitment. Aside from that, everything else available is a standalone inlet with a circular cutout installation that isn't even close to what you're needing.

  • How Much Work Is It To Swap Out A Dual Water Inlet With The Valterra lockable Dual Water Inlet
  • The Valterra Lockable Dual RV Water Inlets # A01-2000VP is very similar in size but without knowing the actual cutout hole dimensions it's not possible to know if you'll need to make modifications. This dual inlet box requires a 5-7/8" wide x 4-3/4" tall cutout hole. Worst case scenario you would have to trim the cutout hole a bit larger to fit this new inlet box in place. You'll want to use butyl tape # AL28FJ on the mounting flange and non-sag sealant # 344270341437-1 around the outer...

  • Size of Inlet and Discharge Threading on Lippert Flow Max RV Water Pump
  • The inlet and discharge threading on the Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump - 12 Volt # LC689052 is .825 inches using a digital caliper so it is not the 1/2 inch male national pipe thread which would be .840 inches. Lippert recommends using the barb fittings included and using 1/2 inch inner diameter flexible hose. My contact said they use the odd size to protect the pump from over-tightening and possible cracking of the housing. The fittings are designed to only be hand tight.

  • Locking Water Hatch Compatibility with Current Cutout on 2018 Keystone Bullet
  • For your 2018 Keystone Bullet, I don't know what cutout dimension is behind the 7-1/2 by 5-1/4 inch mounting of the # A01-2001VP. The lockable cover that replaces this is the Valterra City Water Inlet and Lockable Hatch for RVs - Plastic - White - Gravity Fill # A01-2004VP. This system has overall dimensions of 7-5/8" wide x 6-1/2" high but it only requires a cutout of 5-7/8 inches by 4-3/4 inches so enlarging the opening may not be necessary.

  • Will The Ultra Faucet RV Drinking Water Faucet Install in a 1-1/2" Thick Counter Top
  • The Ultra Faucets RV Drinking Water Faucet part # 277-000189 has an inlet shank of 2-1/4" but once all the hardware is installed you are right at 1-1/2" so it will be a tight fit. You may need to drill out a recess to make sure the hardware threads but I recommend to dry fit it without doing that first. Just drop the inlet shank with the base and hand tighten the hardware. If you can't tighten them you will need to make a small recess.
