Fresh Water Valve; City Water Connection - NewMar ventana 2017 Owner's Manual

Fresh Water Valve

City Water Connection

To connect the unit to the city water supply, connect one end of the hose to the supply, such as a faucet or garden hose-
type valve. Turn on the supply for a few seconds to purge any air pockets in the line, and open all of the faucets. Once
the water flows freely, close all of the faucets, and turn off the water supply.
Use a water hose manufactured and labeled for potable water to ensure that the hose will not alter the taste of
the water.

The rotating "Fresh Water Valve" located in the center of the
water compartment is used to pressurize the fresh water
system in your unit, as well as to fill the fresh water demand
tank when the unit is connected to city water. Simply rotate
the "Fresh Water Valve" to the appropriate position to
perform the desired function. You can also monitor the fresh
water tank via the SilverLeaf touchscreen (if equipped).
The water pump is used to pressurize the fresh water
system when the unit is not connected to city water. The city
water supply is under pressure, so the water pump is not
necessary while you are connected to city water. Once the
city water fill valve is opened, the water is supplied to the
fresh water system components, including the hot water
heater and faucets.
To disconnect from the city water supply, close the valve,
remove the hose from the city water supply, and store it in
the water compartment.
Vibration and flexing during traveling can cause pipes and
fittings to work loose. Follow this checklist to prevent or
repair any plumbing leaks:
• Check all of the plumbing connections for leaks on a
yearly basis.
• If the water pump runs when all faucets are turned off,
check for a leak.
• Be sure the drain valves are closed.
• Tighten any loose faucet connections with a wrench.
• Disconnect the connections completely, and check for
mineral deposits or foreign material on the sealing surfaces.
Clean the surfaces thoroughly, and reinstall the fitting.
• Take the coach to an authorized service center for
repairs if the system continues to leak.
