Hi Bill.
If you recall a while back in our comm regarding the Hymer Nova 545 water
system filling you wrote.

what my book says

Well checked my book and say's same thing word for word,could have sworn it 
mentioned
filling hot water system by useing metal connector for pump and outside 
switch to fill,
however it did not.

I did phone Lowdhams @Nottingham and spoke to a gent in the servicing 
section and he
did say it was ok to fill hot water system useing metal connection and pump 
+outside
switch providing hot taps were in open position,so doing as the dealer had 
mentioned
did work ok without damage to seals.

Have double checked that when system switched over to external pump works ok 
just in case had
done some damage to any seals,but worked fine direct from aquaroll.

Many thanks for help and info,much appreciated.

Sorry not to have replied earlier, we have just got back from a  very
sunny fortnight away in Somerset. I hope you enjoy your hymer as much
as I enjoy mine. Five and a half years now and my new van is still
giving me as much pleasure as it did when I collected it, the nice
thing is having total confidence in the way it is built. Surprisingly
the things that I accepted as a compromise when we bought it have
proved to be it's most user friendly bits, the cooker and the sink
unit combines is the best system I have ever used in a caravan.
