i am concerned about water pressure at some of the camp sites, should i be?

Hmmmm. You do need reasonable pressure to make it work. I'm concerned about your application, though. This is primarily a thing that allows you to "dump at home" where you don't have typical sewer hookups. You run the hose in the house and stick it into a convenient sewer drain. (I use a clean out.) Not sure why you would choose this if you had standard hook ups available. Does that help? It is a dandy gadget that allows me to clean and dump easily at my convenience at home on my Rv pad, Vs holding up a line at a gas station...

Most hookup have at least 35- 40 lbs. some as high as 70. I have had no pressure problems.Just make sure you have hose clamps at all the connections. once they warmup with outside temperature they will come loose with a little pressure.

We have not found the water pressure to be an issue. It seems to work really good no matter the water pressure.

Keeping water in is unlikely to be a problem. Getting the water out, ah, now there's the rub....

Yes...It is a Pump and a Faucet. It does not regulate pressure however. It is on or off. You will need to regulate pressure coming into your camper.I have one in my Pop-Up. HTH

Yes, You should see water moving. Make sure you didn't get any think stuck in the bottom of it.

Unfortunately the camp site we were going to use it got flooded out before we could use it and verify but I believe the answer is yes as we were prepared for rain.

Not really sure. The only concern I'd have is there a minimum water pressure. You might check with orbit.com to find out.

The pressure should be OK. You may want to use different shower head than the one provided with the filter.

It depends on how far apart they are.... But I doubt it.. Plus I'm having water pressure issue with it now

Perhaps, but if it is a sandy bottom I would be concerned it would get clogged up.

The inner walls of my canopy were dripping from condensation when I got back to my tent in the morning. Some of the books I had in the tent got warped from the water. It had not rained. I definitely wouldn't leave anything super important in the tent overnight if I thought it was going to rain.

Make sure not to overfill it, or this phenomenon (as the manual calls it) occurs. There's a mark for the maximum water level on the inside, and it's lower than one would expect.

We got to test out it's waterproof ability this year, when it poured so hard that we made trenches to send the water away from the tent and site. Two torrential storms went through that brought a lot of rain and wind. The water had risen to 3 inches up the side of the tent, but did not get inside at all. One thing we do find is that there will be condensation which ends up underneath the inflatable pads under the sleeping bags. This comes from sweating overnight, not from rain getting inside. We just open it up during the day to let it air out. You're not going to want to do that in the rain so it'll be difficult to get rid of the condensation, which there will be more of if you go into the tent wet. You definitely want a layer under your sleeping bag especially if you are going to be in those conditions for that amount of time.

The water pressure is good, will be close to the actual pressure that you have with maybe a little bit of improvement. nothing noticeable for me.

I'll say this: In a heavy downpour, my Red Canyon leaked like a sieve, right through the rain fly, right through the seams, right through the tent fabric, and right through the floor. It's a fair-weather tent ONLY, in my experience. I even complained to Coleman about the Red Canyon, but they never answered my emails. I'll never buy from Coleman again.

The water pump is very soothing and provides light water circulation. I don't think the water pressure will be uncomfortable.

I'd keep an eye on the pressure and continue with the same tube. Especially if you always carry a spare and know how to install it in the field.

Yes so long as you have electricity. Otherwise you may want to find a portable shower in a camping store. Good luck, be safe.
