My previous camper had an overflow tube for the freshwater tank. You just filled the tank until you saw water flowing from the overflow. The pod does not seem to have an overflow tube that I can see, so my question is how do you know when the tank is full without bursting the thing.

The fill pipe for the water tank is not a tight fit when the tank is full water just flows back out the fill pipe.

There is the air vent for the fresh water tank that I would imagine might send water out of it when then the tank got full. It is located right there with the fill opening, it's the little screen to the left. Like Seanl said there is not a tight fit on the fill opening so water may come back out at you when over full.

PS I have never put that much water in the tank. |

Think of it like overfilling your gas tank... you'll know when it starts spilling back out. There is a little vent right next to the fill opening, but it's just there to release pressure. You shouldn't be applying any pressure to the tank though... keep an air gap when you're filling.

Yup, it will just start spitting back out when full.
