System Operation:
1. Systems heat switch is turned ON, applying power to the
snap disc thermostat, bay heater and heating pad(s) relay.
2. When the bay temperature reaches 40º F +/-6º F the snap
disc thermostat will close applying power to the bay heater
and the systems heat active indicator light will be lit. The 12
Volt heater will continue to operate until the bay temperature
reaches 55º F +/-6º F. The indicator light will then turn OFF.
3. When the bay temperature reaches 44º F the heating pad
thermostat(s) will turn on the heating pad(s) to heat the fresh
water tank. Heating pad(s) will continue to heat the tank until
the bay temperature reaches 64º F.
4. The system active indicator light will not indicate heating
pad(s) operation, everyone will need to be aware that when the
systems heat switch is ON, the pad(s) will operate independent
of the 12 Volt DC heater.
Exposed drains and water lines may freeze quickly in below freezing temperatures.
If, by the way of prior experience, there is doubt as to what temperatures the
motorhome's water system will tolerate and the water system will not be used,
winterize the water system using potable antifreeze. When the tanks are dumped,
additional potable antifreeze will need to be added to the storage tanks.
CAUTION: To prevent the system Heat function from draining
the house batteries, the battery disconnect switches should be
turned off if the motorhome is left for an extended period of
time (2hrs). The battery cut-off switch does not shut off the bay
heater circuitry. The heat system will quickly drain the
motorhome batteries when not connected to shore power or
operating from the generator. It is recommended to use the heat
functions when hooked to shore power or operating from the
generator.
If the motorhome is stored where freezing temperatures may occur, drain the
domestic fresh water loop completely of water. When draining the domestic fresh
water system begin with draining the fresh water tank by opening the low point
drain for the fresh tank and allowing the water to drain.
NOTE: Icemakers, water filters, water purifiers and water
heaters all use domestic water and should be drained and stored
in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation for
winterization.
