Counter soap dispensers

decided to install a counter top soap dispenser in the kitchen and bathroom in the thor Vegas 24.1 so that we can more easily wash our hands. I got these from home depot

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Glacier-...6664/206417844

The thinner smaller soap container works well for the tight spaces in the rv.

To add something to this great idea. Remove the bottle that holds the soap, Get some 1/4" poly hose, attach it to the stem that pulls the soap to the dispenser, put the other end of the hose in a full bottle of soap that you bought from the store

I do this in my house. The big bottle of dawn soap lasts many months. No need to keep refilling the little bottle that came with the dispenser. pic is the bottle under my kitchen sink

Here's one from amazon that incorporates Jerry's idea:

To correct myself I use 3/8 poly tube not 1/4

I used a screw driver to widen the hole in the soap bottle top

Nice. That’s one of the first upgrades I did to spare ourselves from dealing with bottles that have to be stowed.
