Heater-Hot Water - Regal 3760 Owner's Manual

HEATER-HOT WATER

The hot water heater features an eleven gallon capacity
and has recirculating ability to keep water warm during
cruising. This is accomplished by a set of hoses connected
between the hot water tank and the circulating engine
water pump. Engine coolant runs through a heat
exchanger which keeps the tank water warm when the
engines are running.
To initially fill the hot water heater, ensure the boat's
fresh water tank is full. When the tank is full water will
be ejected from the deck vent. At the DC side of the
main ship's AC/DC panel, turn the fresh water pump to
the "on" position. Make sure the water heater is full
of water by opening a hot water faucet until a steady
stream flows out. With the generator running or the
shore power connected, switch on the hot water heater
at the AC side of the ship's service panel. The heating
element will now begin to heat the hot water tank.
Should the hot water heater reset button need resetting,
turn off the hot water breaker at the AC side of the main
control panel. Then remove the panel cover to expose
the reset button. Press the red reset button. After
refastening the access panel, flip on the hot water breaker
to continue the systems operation.
Should the need arise there is a drain valve located in the
rear of the heater. Make sure the water is cold before
attempting to open the valve. The valve runs through
the shower sump pump and then overboard. Never try to
adjust the thermostat or open the drain valve before
turning off the AC breaker. Contact a marine professional
for further information.
