Just a follow-up After correctly closing the Truma valve water was still leaking. A visit to Alex at Dalesview found two leaks. One at a T piece under the right-hand bunk and the other under the cassette toilet. Now thankfully sorted and a pump unit ordered to clear the water pipes in the future.

Thanks, everyone. I always go for a drive to clear the system. We have frost here today and tonight. I will try it again after that. There has been no water inside the van but, the water escaping was somehow running along the lower body of the van and exiting just in front of the step.

Yes it is a Truma combi E but there appear to be other leaks!

Last week in warm sunshine I thought to wash out the water system on my Sun living V 65 SL. I filled the tank which is in the offside rear corner. All OK. On starting the pump the cold water flowed OK but the hot feed flowed out under the van. I have checked the cold water route and all is dry. There is no sign of a leak anywhere inside the van. We had an extra cold winter here in the north of England. I had drained the tank and boiler as normal and assumed that any piping would drain back itself I obviously have a burst somewhere, but am unable to find the route of the hot water feed. It disappears down the back of the water tank and reappears at the Truma on the other side of the van. Any help appreciated. The van is made by Adria.
