I also like the sump idea, to create what those of us in the industry call a "hydraulic break". I wonder what fancy contraption I could come up with...
I can see some overkill from the hydraulic engineer coming up :boink:. Can`t wait to see what you come up with mate:pop2:.

Phew... Good to see some comma's migrating into your posts... :)

Anyhow mate, there are a few minor sags in the line from the sink but that's not going to be the cause of the shower flood I suspect flow has to go down, out the waste and then back up the shower line. The water takes the path of least resistance so it's more to do with the longer hoses and lack of fall from the waste pipe to the sullage. A couple of shorter section of hoses would work better I'm sure, but yeah I'm keen for something more reliable. Send through pics of the new set up mate as I love the screw on connector idea, much better than trying to force on the existing hoses...

u need a bigger hose out , if u haven't got a clarkrubber close I will get u some I got 5 meters I think and a few joiners so I can have it short or long , when I put it in van put it into its own joiner so water dosnt come out at all , I do the same with the water hose plug both ends into a connector , and ur posts are much longer than mine at times my eyes are sore ,,,,,,,,,,,,, lol giddy up ,, I can get u the fittings from bunnings too and come up one weekend to do some plumbing or is there one close but u need the clarkrubber hose !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh I lifted my pipes under the van with cableties so its flat all the way

Thanks heaps @Bluey... appreciate the offer. No Clark Rubber immediately around here, but I'm sure I can source some from somewhere. Good tip with the cable ties too, if anything just to get things flowing a little more smoothly.

Yeah pics would be great mate. I've seen the one from the step back, but I'm interested in the actual fitting you used on the pipe on the van. Any detailed pics are welcome mate.

Love your work mate. Might even allow me to do some shopping and work on Sunday then... Concreter rang today saying that the pad for the van is postponed another week... Pretty ticked, but I'm off to find a Weber Q instead and spend some coin.

Will do mate. Heard good things about the Z&B, but I feel the Weber Q might have a mortgage on our opinions by sheer weight of positive reviews.
