Plumbing; Fresh Water System - Winnebago Journey 34Y Owner's Manual

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 and water pump located
within the motor home, or
• Any external fresh water source to which the
motor home may be connected, known as
"city water".
Water Pressure Regulators
Because city water pressure varies from
location to location, we recommend obtaining an
in-line water pressure regulator to prevent
damage to any components, connections, and
seals in your fresh water system.
These devices simply connect in-line between
the supply hose and the city water input on the
coach. We recommend regulators that control
water pressure to 50 psi. max.
Water pressure regulators are commonly
available at most RV dealerships and many large
retail discount or home supply centers.
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) located inside the
water service center.
The Fresh Water valve routes the water from
the city water hose to the fresh water tank for
filling.
1. Attach hose to the Fresh Water Inlet.

NOTICE
Do not leave fresh water connection
unattended when filling tank. Failure to
comply may result in tank expansion and
property damage.
