Fresh Water - Pogo 30 Owner's Manual

Fresh Water

The standard fresh-water installation on board the Pogo 30 is composed of the followings:
Canvas water bag Nauta 135L
Water pressure unit with its filter
General tap.
Sink with tap and evacuation system, including seacock.
Some precautions must be taken using the water canvas bag:
"NAUTA® flexible tanks used for drinking water will operate more satisfactory if the following
procedures are observed. Before putting in use for the first time, partly fill the tank with warm water
(50°c) and a 1% solution of mild detergent. After a few minutes, rinse with clear water and fill it again
with water treated with chlorine tablets (follow package instructions for a 5% concentration). Empty
after 2 hours and carefully and thoroughly rinse with clear water. These cleaning operations should
be performed with the system fully installed so that all the piping undergoes the same treatment.
When the tank will not be used for a long period (winter layup...), keep it partly filled with water and
10% of chlorine solution. Because it is not possible to completely evacuate the tank, this procedure
best prevents the development of microorganisms which could coat the inside and contribute to a bad
taste in water.
Before returning the tank to service, follow the same procedure as used with a new tank. Even if using
your tank constantly, this cleaning operation is recommended at 6 months interval. Do not forget that
the pipes also contribute to the water's taste and should be involved in the regular cleaning process."
When filling your NAUTA water tank, we recommend that it is not filled beyond its total capacity. In
practice, the filling hose should not be full of water and the input connector does not must touch the
access door panel.
11. Black Waters
The pogo 30 is optionally equipped with a black water tank. It is then located on top of the toilets. It
has a 60L capacity.
If you want to use it, close the valve situated in front of the toilets. Its opening will allow the
emptying of the tank.
To drain it, use the deck access.
