  • Page 118: Fresh Water Connections

    Section 8: Plumbing System 12-volt Water Pump and Switch There must be sufficient 12-volt DC power to run the water pump when your recreation vehicle is not hooked up to city water. Once activated, the water pump (also known as the demand pump) will self-prime, and provide water.
  • Page 119 Section 8: Plumbing System Turn ON the water at the water source. Open the cold water supply faucets to bleed air from the water lines. When the water lines are nearly full, you may experience some “air pockets.” Allow these to escape before closing the cold water supply faucets. NOTE: The City Water Fill inlet when connected to a pressurized fresh water source sends water through the water lines and fixtures without the use of the pump.

  • Page 120: Draining The Fresh Water System

    Section 8: Plumbing System Draining the Fresh Water System Water tanks may be drained through a valve located near the tank. A recreational vehicle with a demand pressure pump system will have low-point drains attached to the water lines (normally located near the water tank). These low-point drains will release water in the supply lines by opening the valves and all faucets.
  • Page 121 Section 8: Plumbing System Bypass Mode: operation diverts the flow of water around the water heater keeping water out of the water heater. Hot water bypass valve handle (B) should point inline with the hot water outlet line. Cold water bypass valve handle (A) should point inline with the cold water inlet line.
  • Page 122 Section 8: Plumbing System Put the sanitizer solution in the fresh water tank. Insert one end of a hose (or funnel) in the gravity fill inlet; insert the other end into a container holding the chlorine solution. Do not use your non-toxic drinking water hose. Pour the chlorine solution into the gravity fill.
  • Page 123 Section 8: Plumbing System NOTE: If a chlorine taste lingers in the water, flush the water system with a solution consisting of one-quart vinegar to five gallons of clean water. Re-flush as necessary. The vinegar solution may damage the water heater or the water filter, so both must be bypassed again before performing this operation.
  • Page 124 Section 8: Plumbing System NOTE: The winterization process may vary slightly due to different plumb- ing configurations between models. NOTE: Appliances must be winterized.
