Transit Undermount Water Tank (17 Gallon)

Full Details

Our Promaster undermount water tanks have been selling like hot cakes - you didn't think we'd forgotten about the Transits did you? These undermount tanks save valuable space inside your van by creating grey water storage underneath your van.

Alternatively, these tanks are food grade CSA certified, and BPA free, so you can also use them for extra freshwater storage. Bundle this tank with our Freshwater Fittings Kit, and save yourself a trip (or multiple trips!) to the plumbing store. 

Need something smaller? We also have a 10 Gallon Transit Undermount Water Tank.

Looking for the complete set-up? Pair your undermount tank with our 29 Gallon Transit Wheel Well Water Tank to complete your off-grid water management system. Spend more time at the campsite and less time searching for water fill-up stations! Have a dually? No problem! Check out our 32G Transit Dually Wheel Well Water Tank!
