now why is that one R600 vs R2300 for a FL35?Am I going to need to replace that in 2 years time?
At R600, who cares? That's half a tank of diesel.

Ok, with some help from Iron we have found the agents

Rudd Products in Kyalami 011-702-3010

The same pump is under different names; Surgeflo, Starflo, Singflo & Flopower, so probably some Chinese rubbish if it has so many names for the same thing
These people were very helpful, but unfortunately the pump is not repairable due to its age. They did try replacement parts but someone did a camp side fix and use the wrong screw stripping the threads and ruining the water proofing.

Maybe we can help? We stock the Seaflow pumps and install them into our trailers. I can also add a separate water filter that will make life a lot easier.

Jotto maybe you can give us some info on the filters

I saw this weekend at the Zwartkops 4x4 show a company had a 5 element filter system for the water system

Is that over kill or worth it

What can you supply
T3 Syncro Cox Camper
SJ 410 Tiny Tiger 🐅
Millennium Beetle VR6 T
And a few VW Air cooled Toys
T5.1 4MOTION

We use inline filters, like the JoJo dual filters. The ones in the pic below work well, all depending on your space available. You can get them at Waterspot (https://waterspot.co.za/)

We use the single unit typically:

5 Filter system seems overkill, unless you want to draw water directly from a river or unknown source. More to break.
