Hello, I need to replace the 5 gallon water storage container for my 2005 tab, I have googled for hours and can not seem to find a similar product that allows the sink faucet water pump to draw water from the container. Can anyone offer any suggestions as the where to find such a product?

    Post up some photos.  We have many innovative members onboard and there has to be an alternative and solution to your problem.  Maybe the pump needs to be replaced?

    I just purchased a 2006 tab, clamshell. I am confused about the potable water tank vs the reservoir. My previous trailer, a little guy, only had a reservoir. What is the connection between the potable water tank under the sink and the reservoir? Where do I put the antifreeze to winterize it? Thank you! Signed newbie

    If I am not mistaken, the DM TaB only had the 5 gallon water container mentioned above.  Do you have 2 different tanks?

    There's a place on the outside to hook up a hose, maybe that goes directly to the potable water tank. I just assumed there was a reservoir. I am waiting to hook up a hose to see where the water goes.

    Still I don't know where to put the antifreeze to send it through

    Here is a quote from the other thread that you posted to:

    “Water system is manual fill of 5 gallon container, or hook up at site if external fittings installed. You may also have a 12V water pump for delivery from container.”

    Sounds like you can hook up to city water or use the 5 gallon container.  When you say reservoir do you mean a fresh water tank?

    As I recall, the gray water system on the Dutchman T@B’s is a screw on fixture for a garden hose under the front of the T@B and you need to provide your own gray water reservoir. 

    Some use an oil change tub that can be closed, and there are 6 gallon gray water reservoirs that you can add a hose attachment to.  @BrianZ just had a writeup about a new 6 gallon gray water reservoir he has been using.

    UPDATE:
    Sorry, but this tank is no longer available.

    If you need a gray water tank for attaching a garden hose, I have one of these 6 Gallon tanks that I'd give away for the cost of shipping.. (including a new & more secure bayonet cap with 4 latching hooks to replace the original shown here with only 2)..

    I will be using a different model with wheels, so don't need this one anymore.
