It’s the one resource you’ll always want whenever you pitch up at a caravan site. But getting your water supplies from the source to where you’ll be using it typically presents a problem. You could be forgiven for feeling that you’ve stepped back into earlier times in your time-consuming water-carrying role.
Anything that helps you transport your water to where you need it is going to be a Godsend – and a device called Aquaroll (or Aqua Roll) apparently does just that!
What is an Aquaroll?
Like many another ingenious invention, the Aquaroll water carrier is simplicity itself. It’s a barrel-shaped water carrier that rolls naturally along the ground with the gentlest of pulls or pushes.
You won’t tire yourself out rolling this water carrier, even though it has a massive 40-litre capacity – that’s a lot of water and would prove much too heavy for you to carry (40 litres of water weighs exactly 40 kilograms and that’s roughly 88 pounds).
Quite simply, a water carrier helps you trundle your water to exactly where you need to use it – in your caravan, motorhome, or tent, in the kitchen or shower room – safely and without any strain or injury.
What are the benefits of using an Aquaroll water carrier?
We’ve already outlined the main advantages of using a water carrier – it’ll quite simply make your camping or caravanning experience all the more comfortable and civilised.
This container for all your fresh water needs is manufactured from virgin food-grade material – and not the recycled and reground material that is commonly used in the manufacture of other water carriers. Depending on the grade (Original or Economy) of the water carrier you choose, you can also benefit from materials that offer UV protection – so, helping to prevent the light from getting in and causing the growth of algae and other bacteria.
But you can also go one better with the accompanying Wastemaster – an equally capacious and companion container that sits neatly under your caravan or motorhome for the collection of all the grey (waste) water from your kitchen sink and shower.
Are there any downsides to using an Aquaroll?
Nothing in this world comes without at least a downside or two. Those you might find with an Aquaroll were identified in an article recently published on the website Caravanly:
- you might consider the price off-putting, for example, depending on the capacity and quality (Original or Economy) of the water carrier you choose;
- the water carrier is so big it can be heavy when full – the 88 lbs we’ve already mentioned – but that’s also why the water carrier is designed to be rolled along the ground and not carried.
Summary
You’ll remember the days when you struggled to carry heavy water carriers from the standpipe on the caravan site to the pitch you were using. And even then, each carrier held a relatively limited volume of water so countless trips were needed back and forth from the filler tap to your caravan.
With a water carrier, you’ll avoid any such problem. By rolling and trundling the barrel-shaped water carrier from the filling point to your caravan you’ll transport all the water you need safely and without strain or effort.
All in all, you may find an Aquaroll an excellent option as a convenient – not to mention durable – means of transporting your water from one place to another.
