I just realized I can not find the inlet to attach a hose for direct water pressure in my trailer. Is it possible that my trailer did not come with one? Am I missing something? I have never heard of this before ... but if it's there it's hiding. The bargman tank filler is there but thats all I can find.. Here is a photo of each side...

Check directly below the sink underneath. It may run straight up and in, and it was quite common to be plumbed with the shortest inlet possible.

I don't quite get the shutoff valve on that drain line. Does that have a holding tank above the belly pan?

I don't quite get the shutoff valve on that drain line. Does that have a holding tank above the belly pan? Yes it does.. there is a fibreglass tank under the toilet. The bathroom is a step up style.. I'm just trying to figure out if we can keep that old system and tie in the grey water line from the sink. I'm going to need to find a plumber when I get to that point. There was originally no grey water tank so I am going to add a small one under the sink cabinet, and then hopefully tie into the monstrosity underneath... SaveSave

Another option you might consider is using a portable tote tank to catch the grey water using the existing setup. No plumber necessary.

If your original tank was a pressure tank, that IS your city inlet... (the one under the trailer)
A hose was connected to the bottom inlet, the valve opened and the tank was filled and pressurized at the same time. (if the lid was sealed) Then, the valve is closed, the hose disconnected. Pressurized water flows from the faucet(s). As the pressure goes down, the air valve allows for re-pressurizing.
Hope this makes sense.
It can be changed out to a normal system very easily.
