Review on Barker Manufacturing Company 11916 20 Gal. Water Tank Kit: Optimum Solution for Efficient Water Storage by Josh Reynolds

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Tank fits perfectly but can leak

I used it on my 2018 Sprinter 2500 170 Conversion. It fits perfectly under the van behind the driver's seat. I had to make brackets to mount the tank but I was expecting this as the tank doesn't come with brackets. The problem with the tank and the reason for the three stars is the build quality. As another reviewer mentioned, there was some plastic shavings in the tank which I removed before installing the tank. Installation by threaded fitting manufacturers looks like it was done by a 4 year old with big drips everywhere and sloppy work. The biggest problem is that the tank is leaking. It took a while to locate the wire, but it was at the top of the vent hose fitting. I put a sticky ointment on it and it seems to be holding. Even if there is a leak, only the top half of the water comes out.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • thin
