Subject:      High sink water pressure
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

I love my Westy for everyday driving; I think it's just a cool vehicle. We used to go camping more when our son was young, but you know how life can get away from you. Well, we went camping this past weekend for the first time in over a year and after coming back, I'm making lists of things that I want to have 'on-board' for the next time or things to add or change.

One of the things that I wish I could change is the rate at which water spews out of the sink faucet just on the pressure from the little pump in the water tank. It splatters all over if you're not filling a pot or some container. I understand that this is a function of little faucet opening and the pump pressure. Has anyone modified their sink faucets is someway to lessen this? I've seen pictures of what I think were Eurovan camper faucets that seemed to be sort of a pull out on a hose. Are things like that available for retrofit to a Vanagon Westy? I don't think I've ever needed or wanted to hook up to 'city water' so if I had to give up that feature, I wouldn't care.

TIA
