Hi chaps,

Have been asked to fit watchman or a sight gauge but turns out its a double skinner....would a watchman work on this type of tank? Not a lot of double skinned tanks round these parts at the mo....

what would you guys suggest?

many thanks

What tank is it Dave? They normally come pre installed.

I'd go for the apollo gauge myself.
 
lame/croppie - have not seen the tank yet so not sure. Have fitted plenty of watchman's but always on the old single skinned tanks so was just wondering how it works on the doubles?

what is the apollo gauge croppie?

Open the main lid on the outer tank and then there is usually a space to fit it to the inner tank, on some tanks there is a rubber bung to remove so it's super easy to fit!
 
Croppie, I've had 3 Appollo gauges fail in the last year. Not impressed. Would go for Watchman any time
