Water Pump - Winnebago Adventurer 27N Manual

• Open a faucet on the motorhome (such as the
exterior wash station, if equipped) to relieve
line pressure.
• Disconnect hose from the motorhome and
replace cap on the Fresh Water Inlet.
NOTE: Ensure the Fresh Water valve is in
NORMAL position to use the water
pump. If the valve is in Tank Fill
position, the pump will run continuously
without delivering water.
Method 2 - Filling the Fresh Water
Tank Through Gravity Fill
–If Equipped
WARNING
Potable water only.
Sanitize, flush, and drain water tank
before using.
See owner's manual for instructions,
care, and maintenance information.
Failure to maintain tank can result in
death or serious injury.
Always fill the fresh water tank at an approved
potable water filling facility or a known purified
drinking water source.
The gravity tank fill tube is located behind a
small, lockable door on the driver or passenger
sidewall or backwall toward the back of the
motorhome, depending on model.
Water Tank Gravity Fill
-Typical View
• Insert hose into fill opening and turn water
supply on. Tank is full when water flows from
the tank vent tube beneath the motorhome and
out of the Gravity Fill door.
Using Tank Water (Gravity Fill)
• Turn Water Pump switch ON. While the
switch is on, the water pump will
automatically supply tank water as needed.

WATER PUMP

When your motorhome is not connected to a
city water supply, water is supplied from the
fresh water tank by a water system demand
pump. A demand pump is designed to run only
when you are using water. When you open a
faucet, the waterline pressure drops and the pump
begins to run, and it will continue to run as long
as the faucet is open. When you close the faucet,
the line pressure backs up to the pump, and it
shuts itself off.
The pump is self-priming and will run briefly
to build up line pressure when the Water Pump
switch is first turned on. See "Initial Waterline
Priming" for instructions on using the water
system for the first time.
Water Pump Strainer
The pump is equipped with a cleanable
strainer to capture any possible tank-borne
particles that could damage pump components.
NOTE: We recommend that you check and clean
the strainer after each tankful of water
during the first few uses of the Water
Pump system. Thereafter, remember to
check it at least yearly, and be sure to
empty water from it if using the blowout
winterization procedure.
