SYSTEMS
Water and Drainage Plumbing
Your KZ recreational vehicle has a complete water system, to carry fresh
water, as well as holding tanks for used water. Each group has its own
explanation along with its own operation.
Fresh Water System
Tanks
Water containers are installed under the coach between frame members
and protected with a cover and a steel frame carrier, to be used when city
water is not available. All water containers have 3 exit lines, (1) to draw
water from tank to fill lines, (2) external spigot to drain tank, (3) over flow
line.
Filling Fresh Water System
To place water into your coach, use one of these methods. Different fresh
water entry is used depending on floor plans.
1. Gravity Water Fill (figure 2): To place water
into the fresh water tank, remove cap from
the fill. Insert a hose into the 1-1/4 inch flex
tube 4 to 6 inches. Open the water supply
faucet. DO NOT overfill the tank as it will
break. It is not designed to hold pressure.
2. During the tank filling process, check the
Tank Monitor Panel
for fullness
(if
applicable).
3. On gravity water fill, you will find a small
screen at the 10:00
o’clock position, which is the over flow line
from tank. When water squirts of this screen stop filling the tank
immediately.
Filling Fresh Water System
1. City Water Fill (figure 1)
2. Water may be received into the system
through a direct hook-
up, referred to as a “city
water fill.” After attaching a supply hose to
hook-up, open the faucet from the supply line.
Enter coach and open all faucets to relieve air
from the lines. The water heater will fill first.
You will experience some air pockets. Allow
them to escape before closing all faucets.
