Section 5
PLUMBING
Your Aviator plumbing system has the dual ability to be self-contained with on-board storage, or use
facilities provided by an external pressurized source. The fresh water system consists of those items
which are used to deliver water for your use, while the waste water system is made up of the drains and
tanks which store and remove water that has been used. Components of the plumbing system consist of
strong, lightweight, corrosion resistant materials that provide long life, and easy cleaning. By following
the instructions outlined here, you can expect efficient operation with a minimum of maintenance.
Potable (fresh water) is supplied by either the fresh water tank on-board your Aviator or from an outside
source, connected through the city water inlet connection. When using the fresh water tank, the water is
pumped through the water lines by means of the water pump. When utilizing an exterior source, such as a
campsite water supply, the pump is not needed as the water is already pressurized and will flow through
the water supply lines within your Aviator.
External Hook-Up (City Water Inlet Connection)
Water provided from outside your Aviator is pressurized by the system from which it is delivered. When
you connect your Aviator to an outside source, the fresh water tank and the water pump are kept separate
from the remainder of the system by in-line check valves. (DO NOT turn the pump on if the fresh water
tank is empty. Doing so could cause damage to the pump or a blown circuit may occur.)
Attaching to an Outside Source of Water (City Water Inlet Connection)
1. Remove the cap from the fresh water inlet on the off door rear side of your Aviator.
2. Attach one end of the fresh water hose to the outside source of water.
3. Connect the other end of the hose to the Aviator city water inlet connection.
4. Turn on the outside source of water. Gradually open the hot & cold water at the sinks and tub to clear
air from the lines. Close the faucets when the water is flowing freely.
NOTE: DO NOT TURN ON THE WATER PUMP WHEN USING WATER FROM AN
EXTERNAL SOURCE. ONLY USE THE WATER PUMP WHEN OBTAINING WATER
STORED IN YOUR FRESH WATER TANK.
