protect the plumbing system against such
high pressure.
Not using a water pressure regulator when
using city water may cause the o-rings to
fail. To prevent damage to the plumbing
system or components when using the city

Once activated, the water pump (also known
as the on-demand pump) will self-prime, and
provide water. The water pump continues to
run until approximately 45 lbs. of pressure is
achieved and shut off. The water pump will
automatically re-start when pressure drops.
Some cycling may occur, depending on the
volume of water being released. The water
pump has a built-in check valve to prevent
water from back flowing.
Periodically check the in-line water pump
strainer for accumulated debris. To clean,
shut off the water pump, unscrew the clear
cap, remove the re-useable metal strainer and
clear any debris, then reinstall.

When the water pump switch is ON the water
pump runs until 45 pounds of pressure has
been achieved. The red light will stay ON.
Turn the water pump switch OFF when it is
not in use.
The water pump switch should be in the
OFF position when
unattended for any amount of time. If
something would happen to the water
system, this may help limit water damage
to a smaller area.

NOTE: When you want to use water in
your RV and the RV is not hooked up to city
water, you will need sufficient 12-volt DC
power to run the water pump.

The water heater is designed to heat water
quickly and efficiently. The water heater
manufacturer has preset the sensing limit to
maintain the water temperature when the
water heater is activated.
Do not replace any component part with an
accessory part that is not authorized by the
water heater manufacturer, such as an
"add-on" electric heating element. Such
items are not approved to be installed and
could create an unsafe condition and will
void all warranties.
