    E&P Hydraulics FAQs

    E&P systems are designed to fit a wide range of motorhomes, including popular base vehicles such as the Fiat Ducato, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and similar platforms. However, compatibility depends on factors like chassis layout, available mounting points, and overall vehicle weight.

    In some cases, minor modifications may be required to ensure proper installation and safe operation. A professional installer will assess your specific motorhome to confirm compatibility and recommend the most suitable configuration, ensuring the system works effectively without compromising structural integrity.

    Fitting an E&P levelling system is a specialised job that typically takes between one and two days, depending on the motorhome and complexity of the installation. The process involves securely mounting hydraulic jacks, installing the pump and control unit, and ensuring everything is correctly calibrated.

    Because of the technical nature of the system, installation should always be done by trained and approved professionals. This ensures the system operates safely and reliably, and it also helps maintain warranty coverage and long-term performance.

    E&P levelling systems are known for their durability and are built to withstand regular use in a variety of weather conditions. The hydraulic components are robust, and failures are relatively rare when the system is properly installed and used as intended.

    Maintenance is usually limited to periodic checks, such as inspecting hydraulic lines and keeping moving parts clean. Many owners report years of trouble-free operation, though occasional servicing by a professional can help ensure the system continues to perform at its best over time.

    Weight is an important consideration for motorhome owners, as adding an E&P levelling system will reduce the available payload. Most systems add between 50 and 70 kilograms, depending on the configuration and number of jacks installed.

    While this may not be significant for larger motorhomes, it can be more noticeable on vehicles with limited payload capacity. Before installation, it’s a good idea to check your current weight margins and, if necessary, consider a weight upgrade to ensure you remain within legal limits.

    “We arrived at Llanfyllin, and it was raining so hard it was difficult to find our plot. Once parked up, it took just 90 seconds as we let our automatic levelling system get us level. Thank you, Bristol Caravans, for fitting our amazing levelling system.”
