  • Page 58 Section 7: Fuel System Ensure a supply of fresh air (Canada units only) Cooking / Comfort Heating Label Calculating Propane Gas Usage Most RV gas appliances are operated intermittently, and each has a different BTU rating. You will need to consider this when planning your propane supply and consumption. Unless there is heavy use of hot water, the water heater consumption of propane is minimal.
  • Page 59: Plumbing System

    Section 8: Plumbing System Plumbing System There are two different water systems in your recreation vehicle: The fresh water system consists of the fresh water holding tank, faucets and con- nections, water pump, water heater, tub/shower. On some models, it may also include the water purification system or outside shower assembly (if so equipped).
  • Page 60 Section 8: Plumbing System Water Pressure Regulator (customer supplied) A water pressure regulator is recommended to prevent damage to the plumb- ing system or components. To prevent damage when using the city water connection, a 45 lb. (315 KPa) rated water pressure regulator is recommended. Excessive pressure from the water supply source may be encountered in some parks, espe- cially in mountain regions when using the fresh water inlet or black tank flush.
  • Page 61: Water Purification System

    Section 8: Plumbing System Normal pump maintenance consists of checking and cleaning of the strainer, normal sanitiz- ing and winterizing and occasionally checking all plumbing hardware and fittings for tight- ness. Lack of sanitizing can lead to premature pump failure and poor performance over time. Scale build-up on the diaphragm and valves, can cause low flow and leak back (occasional pump cycling with no faucets open or tank filling up when hooked up to city water).
  • Page 62: Draining The Fresh Water System
