I have found that the handle is to small but if you flip the spout to the up position (standing upright) it's a lot easier to grip the faucet. Also be sure you attach a pressure reducer to the hose where you connect into the water supply. This will reduce the pressure in the hose and sink fittings to 40psi or less depending on the one you buy. Without this reducer there is way too much pressure on the hoses and fittings inside your Westy and you might wake up to an unexpected shower some night! The pressure in some campgrounds can be as high as 100psi. Good luck, Wendy & John Cape Cod, MA '85 Westy, "S-CAPE" LiMBO members |
