7.1 Water system - Introduction

All Swift Group campervan water systems
have been designed around a pump fitted
within the campervan. This pump draws water
from an under floor or internal water tank,
to provide water pressure within the water
system, whenever it is switched on and water is
available.
The schematic below shows the basic
configuration of the water system:

When power is supplied to the pump, it will draw
water from the water tank, and pump it to the
campervan kitchen tap and shower. The pump
is fitted with its own pressure switch, and will
continue to pump water, until the pressure of
water on the output of the pump reaches a pre-
set level. For this pressure to be achieved, the
taps must be closed.
When the taps are opened, water will leave the
tap via the spout, and the pressure in the pipes
between the pump and the taps will reduce.

Because of this reduction in pressure, the
pressure switch on the pump will switch back
on and the pump will again run to pump more
water.
Close to the pump, the water under pressure is
split into two paths:
1. Through blue water pipes routed directly to
the cold connection of the tap.
2. To the shower.
