Lou,
Thanks! This is the thread I saw the other day and referred to - I must have missed a couple of days on the forum because later on in the thread you all started talking about what it actually does. Now I get it. Thanks again.
Adam

In my last TT I attached a length of flexible tube about 12 feet long to the trailer or pressured side of the pump. The tube was coiled to save space. The tube acts a lot like a pressure vessel that you find on most domestic pump systems but without the weight or size. I dampens noise considerably and also helps to moderate the pressure fluctuations in the water system. I also rubber mounted the pump in a manner simular to Iggy. The pump was located in a cubby directly under one of the bunks and before the mod my daughter would wake up in the night if someone ran any water.
