About The Fresh Water System
The Fresh Water System consists of the fresh water
holding tank, water pump, valves, connection hoses, and
fresh water plumbing lines. This system is responsible for
providing potable water for drinking, cooking, bathing,
and all other activities that require clean water.
The fresh water system begins with a hose or hose reel,
which provides the connection to the fresh potable water.
Then, via the fresh water valve, the water is diverted
through the coach to be distributed through the cold
water plumbing lines to the fresh water holding tank or to
the cold water connections of each faucet and the water
heater. From the water heater, the water is then dispersed
through a series of water lines to each faucet on the hot
water inlet and the hot water spigots (if equipped).
Plumbing Overview
This chapter provides detailed information about the coach’s fresh and waste water system and all of the
related components: faucets and fixtures, filters, sinks and showers, toilets, and much more.
IMPORTANT
!
Any of the following quick start instructions provided by Newmar should not take the place of the manufacturer’s
complete documentation. Refer to Newgle for more information about plumbing components offered for your
coach’s model year. Failure to connect and operate the system correctly may result in damage not covered by the
Newmar Limited Warranty.
CAUTION
!
Read and understand all operating instructions
for the plumbing system prior to using your coach.
Failure to connect and operate the system correctly
may result in damage not covered by the Newmar
Limited Warranty.
About The Waste Water System
There are two separate waste systems: the gray tank
system and the black tank system, which includes sinks,
lavatories, showers, tubs, and toilets. Each tank has its
own control valve, and both tanks drain through the sewer
drain hose. The waste water system catches and contains
the used water and divert the waste water through the
traps and drain lines to the grey or black holding tank(s). It
is then stored until the tanks are emptied using a sanitary
drain or dump station.
Overview
The water compartment in the coach typically contains
the tanks and most of the controls for the plumbing
system. It is usually located on the driver side of the
coach immediately in front of the rear wheels, as it is
isolated from other compartments and is heated and
insulated. The water compartment contains parts of both
the fresh and waste water systems.
WATER PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS
Ease of operation was the key element in the design of
the water compartment and plumbing systems. The fresh
water system in your coach is designed to operate at a
maximum of 60 PSI. Water pressure levels above this
level can damage the fresh water plumbing. If the water
pressure ever surpasses 60 PSI, a pressure regulator
must be installed to reduce the incoming pressure, or fill
the fresh water tank and use the internal water pump to
supply water to your coach.
