FRESH WATER SYSTEM

The fresh water system provides water to the
galley sink, shower, bathroom lavatory, toilet and
water heater. Water may be supplied by either of
two sources:
• a fresh water tank located within the motor
home
• any external water source to which the motor
home may be connected, known as "city
water".

Filling the Fresh Water Tank
Always fill the fresh water tank at an approved
potable water filling facility or a known purified
drinking water source.
The tank is filled through the city water
connection (Fresh Water Inlet) or optional hose
reel in the water center.
The Fresh Water Valve routes the water from
the city water hose to the fresh water tank for
filling.
1. Attach a hose from a city water faucet to the
city water connector (Fresh Water Inlet) in the
water center on the driver side of your coach
(or pull a sufficient amount of hose from the
optional water center hose reel – if equipped)
and attach to an external city water faucet.
