SECTION 4 –
APPLIANCES AND SYSTEMS
NOTICE
This system is filled with a 40/60 mix of
DEX-COOL extended life antifreeze and
deionized water. No substitutions shall be
permitted or damage to system may
occur.
Coolant Tank
(Located below dinette seat - remove
screws and panel to access)
• Fluid should be within 1" at the top of the
tank.
• Check antifreeze/water heating solution
level monthly.
DO NOT open tank when HOT.
Hot Water
The Hydronic Heating System allows water to
be heated as it is being used. A continuous supply
of hot water is obtained through a tank-less, on-
demand hot water system with restricted flow.
Interior Heat
This system is also equipped with a
circulation pump, which allows individual
interior heating. Whenever the room thermostat
calls for heat, the water heating solution is
circulated through interior heat exchangers
(similar to radiators) located throughout your RV
that distributes heat quietly and evenly.
The Hydronic Heating System can be
operated off of the 120-volt AC electric heating
element or the 12-volt DC diesel burner.
4-8
NOTE: Please note that the diesel burner is the
primary heat source for heating both the
interior and the domestic hot water (such
as when cool ambient temperatures exist
and/or when there is a high demand for
domestic hot water).
It is recommended that when starting up your
RV in extreme cold weather conditions or when
you are planning on taking a longer shower, to
turn on the diesel burner switch located on your
interior control LCD panel.
If you normally run the Hydronic Heating
System off of the 120-volt AC electric heating
element only, it is recommended to fire up the
diesel burner monthly as routine maintenance.
Increasing and Decreasing Water
Temperature
WA RNING
Increasing water temperature may result
in scalding and serious injury.
Hydronic Heating System Tempering Valve
(Located below dinette seat - remove screws
and panel to access)
A tempering valve is located below the dinette
seat for regulating the temperature of the hot
water.
Turning the tempering valve an 1/8 of a turn
either way will dramatically increase or decrease
the water temperature.
