Typically I add water to the tank by holding up this 5 gallon container. Yes it look easy when it it empty but no so when it is full with water.

He Ruide > I though about using a dreill pump but this pump was too slow.

He Ruide > So the alternative was this 12 volt pump. Some of the parts are: 12 volt pump, PVC pipe, garden hose and fitings.

He Ruide > I found a plastic box at Radio shack that I have mounded the pump inside. This also shows the other fitting I'm using.

He Ruide > This is the pump mounted under the PUP with the cover off.

He Ruide > The pump inside the project box with the top on.

He Ruide > Two switches. The one on the left is for the water transfer pump. The one on the right is for the fridge fan.

He Ruide > I tapped into the 12 volt wires that are in the fridge compartment...
