Title: Tire Inflator
Post by: whoru1 on October 10, 2018, 08:50:02 am
I plan on boon docking in the 4 corners region in November with our new (2018) Unity and was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a tire inflator.  I was looking at the Viair 400P-RV inflator but not sure if I can connect it via the engine compartment.  Any thoughts are appreciated.

That's the inflator that we finally purchased and it works sort of fine. It does connect right up to the battery easily enough but the electric cord/inflating hose are not the longest things so it's a bit of a stretch to get to the passenger rear tires. The manufacturer will sell you an extension hose but we haven't purchased one .....yet.

That said, it's a powerful little machine and does an excellent job.

My Viair
came with two hoses it should be more than long enough

If the hose is too short, cut the plug wire and spice in what ever extra length you need to reach rear wheels.!  I did that by using an old extension cord without the ends.
