    Thought maybe some of you would like to see this setup I put together today. Great setup to use to pressurize all water tanks.

    Built a pressure setup to keep the @thewaterport weekender supplied with 35psi constantly from the @arb4x4usa dual compressor. This is a game changer when out for days with no way to run a hose to fill the waterport back up. Just add more water and hit the switch on the @switch.pros.official and the 12v solenoid off the arb compressor let’s air go to the tank!

    Here is what I used to complete the task. “All parts from Amazon

    you will need to pick up some 1/4” brass fittings to adapt from your air source to the push lock fittings. The scrader valve that comes on the waterport is 1/8” npt and because I did not have a 1/8”npt x 1/4 push lock I made my own adapter out of brass.

    Nice setup. I was thinking of doing something similar on my roof rack. How did you route the airline from under the hood to the roof?

    thanks man! I ran it down the passenger inner fender and along the frame rail then up between the cab and camper shell. I secured the line with 3m adhesion zip tie mounts. The mounts stick on and bolt the air line perfect.

    Good deal. I just noticed the air solenoid. What is that for?

    The air pressure regulator on the roof keeps me from over pressuring the waterport tank. I set it at 30psi. The solenoid on the front off the arb compressor allows me to control when air goes to the waterport from my compressor. I wired the solenoid into my switch pros.

    Nice. Thats a pretty smart setup. This is my current setup with my day tank. But now that I have the roof rack I'd like something bigger and more permanent like what you have. Thanks for the info!

    I had about the same setup with my daytank but it got old having it in the back of my tundra. The roof mount is so much better especially for showers etc
