Additional Information
The Valterra Rocket Hand Pump delivers dependable high-flow action that lasts. Piston action mechanism allows high water flow and long-term prime lock. The hand pump is unaffected by water deposits that reduce the ability of other types of hand pumps to hold their prime. Heavy-duty construction with chrome-finished base and spout will resist corrosion and withstand marine environments. Pump requires 1-7/8" diameter hole for mounting.

Camper w/9gall FW tank.No 12v pump on system, it does tee into a city water feed if available. Boondocking I pump faucet & it pulls from tank, if water hookup at a park, it still needs pumping but uses "city" water. What are my replacement options?
You can add on an additional small faucet, SKU# 49167, that can run on city water or an electric water pump.
On the other hand, if you are looking for a dual action faucet with hand pump ability and to run on city water, Leisure Components Low Boy Pump model# 131-5 (colonial white or polar white) would be recommended.
This faucet is not listed on our website, it has to be special ordered through our Technical Service Department @ 800.622.6264(M-F, 8:00-5:00 CST).

How is this device used?
What kind of container is needed for the water? Is it typically stored higher than the pump? What kind/size tubing connects to the hand pump?
The lever is moved back and forth to actuate the piston in the faucet which moves the water. Any container that can hold water can be used. Location of the water tank will not matter, but the further away the more pumps will be needed before water appears from the spout. The barb on the pump is 3/8". <a href=https://youtu.be/HqRCXyubaPo>Here</a> is a video where the unit was installed on a sink without an electric pump.

does this unit accept outside water pressure ?
No, this is a manual pump only faucet. <a href=https://www.campingworld.com/chrome-plated-single-touch-faucet>Item# 49167</a> on the other hand is designed to operate off city water pressure or water pump.<p>If manual ability plus outside pressure is needed, there are some faucets on the market that do so (such as the 'Combo Hand Pump -Lowboy' by Leisure Components or the 'Fump' by J&C Water), we unfortunately do not have any at the moment.
