Can anyone tell me if there is a way to add water to the fresh water tank on the 2011 378ts without a preasureized hose we do a fair amount of dry camping and we always leave with full tank of water but sometimes need to add water from containers we carry from home. I could add to the tank from the winterizing section on our last A class which was a coachman.
You could use the pump to suck from the container. There is a hose tee'd off the inlet for sucking antifree out of jugs when winterizing. It wont fill the tank though.

That is a great idea and at least you could always use this in an emergency...can't imagine the heat I would get if we ran out of water...if you dry camp alot might be a good idea to buy a couple of those plastic gas cans and carry a them full of water...
Here is a very low tech method that has served us well.
We buy a 6 gallon blue water jug (WITH HANDLE) at home depot.
Remove the top and carefully cut out the "puncture" hole.
Using an exacto type blade make a tiny air hole in the cap.
(to speed things up)
Insert a long vinyl tube and reattach to the jug.
Invert and use gravity to transfer the water.
To be honest we have since bought a manual "bilge pump" that fits those neck openings to pump it right into the tank.

I bought one of these containers at Wal-Mart years ago for tent camping. I haven't tried recently; but I'm sure the spout also allows for a hose to connect to it.
Thanks THE SASKS I bought one CUt the fill line put in a tee with a ball valve. hooked pump up with a toggle switch and a hose to put into a jug. did the install with everything permanently mounted right beside the main Water pump. By the way perhaps we could hook up some time this year
