Trouble Shooting Fresh Water System

Water system problems and leaks usually fall into two categories: System prob-
lems and problems caused by improper use or lack of attention. These problems usual-
ly stem from improper winterizing, poor maintenance, road vibration and campsite water
pressure variations. Check all plumbing connections for leaks at least once a year. If
the water pump runs when a faucet is not open check for a water leak. Be sure tank
drain valves are closed. If the system continues to leak take your motorhome to an
authorized dealer for service.
Waste Water Systems
Waste drainage system was designed to provide adequate and safe storage and/or
discharge of waste materials. All materials used in fabrication and installation of the sys-
tem is tested by a nationally recognized testing laboratory. The entire fabricated waste
system is factory tested in accordance with the American National Standards Code
A119.2. The drainage system uses ABS plastic piping and fittings connected to sinks,
shower, toilet and holding tanks and provides for their drainage to an outside termina-
tion. The motorhome should be reasonably level for best operation of the system. There
are two separate systems, one for waste water (gray water) and one for sewage waste
(black water). Each one has its own control valve and both empty through the sewer
drain hose. When traveling, we recommend holding tanks be empty or less than half full.
Drain Traps
Sinks and shower drains have a water trap to prevent holding tank odor from
entering the motorhome. These traps must have water in them to trap odors. During
travel water can spill out of sinks and shower drain traps. During storage, water can
evaporate and allow odor into the motorhome. If odor is detected, run water into sinks
and shower to fill drain traps.
Toilet Operating Instructions
The toilet operates from either the fresh water tank or from a city water supply.
The water pump must be turned on or city water connected. The toilet flushes directly
in the black water holding tank and uses high velocity water injection to produce a swirl
effect in bowl.
