“CITY WATER” (Pressurized fresh water source)
1. Connect the fresh water hose to the City Water inlet.
2. Set the colored valves to the CITY WATER setting:
(A) White handle pointing right
(B) Blue handle pointing down
(C) Black handle pointing right
(D) Red handle pointing up
(E) Green handle pointing up
3. Connect other end of the hose to the pressurized fresh water source.
4. Turn ON the pressurized water source.
5.
Water should now be available to all fixtures.
“WINTERIZE” (plumbing lines and fixtures via pump)
( Refer to the Winterizing Plumbing System section before starting the winterizing process ).
1. Connect a garden hose to the City Water inlet (do not use your fresh water hose to
winterize the water lines)
2. Set the colored valves to the WINTERIZE setting:
(A) White handle pointing down
(B) Blue handle pointing left
(C) Black handle pointing right
(D) Red handle pointing left
(E) Green handle pointing up
The water heater is bypassed automatically on this setting.
3. Insert the other end of the hose in a container holding RV antifreeze.
4. Turn the pump switch ON.
5.
Antifreeze should begin flowing into the plumbing lines and fixtures. (The pump will
run when a faucet or the toilet is in use.) To aid in siphoning place the container on a
surface approximately 2 feet off the ground.
6.
Open one plumbing fixture, keeping it open until antifreeze appears then close it.
Repeat for each plumbing fixture (including the hot & cold lines on the outside shower)
7.
Turn the pump OFF when all fixtures have been winterized.
8. Disconnect the hose from the City Water Connection Inlet. (it is normal for some
antifreeze to exit the inlet hose as it is being disconnected)
9. Leave the valves set on WINTERIZE setting.
NOTE:
To disconnect: Turn off water at the pressurized source first,
disconnect hose from the water source, (to release pressure off the
system) then disconnect the hose at the City Water Connection on
Utility Center last.
