I have a small cabin that has a kitchen and bathroom but no water. I have a tank on a trailer for water but what do I need to get and how do I go about getting the water out of the tank and into the cabin? I have a generator that I can use for a pump.

I'm assuming that this cabin has plumbing already?

I don't see one of these gadgets on this site, however they may sell one.

A small pump and small pressure tank hooked up between your water trailer and the cabin plumbing will do the trick.

That largely depends on how much power the generator can produce. If you get at least 115 volts than you have several options, but a booster pump or jet pump/pressure tank are your two basic options.

Hidro, is correct you want to make sure you have the available amps and kilowatts to support it.
