PLUMBING
Example Of A 2022 Bay Star Water Compartment
The following information is generic for the 2022 Bay Star. Components installed may vary by floorplan or optional
equipment.
COMPONENT(S)
SUMMARY OF FUNCTION AND OPERATION
1
Drain Outlet and Cover
The drain outlet is used to attach a 4" sewer hose, and the drain cover is used to prevent leakage of waste material. Make sure the drain cover is
securely installed on the drain outlet unless actively dumping the tanks via a 4" sewer hose.
2
Exterior Shower
An exterior shower faucet with a wand can be used to rinse off shoes and/or feet, bathe a pet, wash your hands, or rinse off the sewer hose after
dumping the waste water tanks. When finished using the exterior shower, shut off both the hot and cold valves. Do not simply shut off the valve
on the shower head itself, as it may cause hot and cold water to mix at the exterior shower and could allow drastic changes in water temperature
throughout the coach.
3
Fresh (City) Water Connection
via Hose
This potable water connection is used in conjunction with the Fresh Water Fill Valve for a number of purposes, including pressurizing the
plumbing in the coach and filling the fresh water tank. Connect the coach to the water source via a potable hose and the city water connection.
4
Fresh Water Hose Hatch
The hatch provides an opening in the compartment floor to insert the potable water hose to prevent the compartment door from crushing the
hose when the door is closed.
5
Fresh Water Tank
This tank is used to hold fresh potable water for use throughout the water system and is usually located on the floor of the water compartment;
however, some coach floorplans may be equipped with a water tank located in another compartment. The fresh water tank is filled from the city
water connection with a hose or hose reel via the fresh water tank fill valve or auto fill system. This tank may be located behind a panel, cover, or
the macerator and may not be visible from the outside.
6
Fresh Water Tank Fill Valve
The rotating fresh water tank fill valve is used to pressurize the fresh water system in your coach, as well as to fill the fresh water tank when the
coach is connected to city water. With pressurized water supply connected, simply rotate the valve to the desired position:
•
Manual fill position fills the fresh water tank when connected to a pressurized water source
•
Auto fill position supplies pressurized water to the coach on demand from the city water connection and, if the auto fill function is enabled on
the coach’s tank monitoring system (i.e. Silverleaf, KIB, or Digi-Level), fills the fresh water tank to match the auto fill settings.
7
Fresh Water Tank Low Point Drain
The fresh water tank low point drain is used to empty the fresh water tank. Open the low point drain valve to drain the fresh water tank, and
close the low point drain valve when filling the fresh water tank or storing fresh water in the tank. This low point drain is located near the fresh
water tank and may be difficult to see from the outside. It is often located just behind the lip of the white drain pan when the fresh water holding
tank is located in the main water compartment. When the fresh water holding tank is located outside of the main water compartment, the fresh
water tank low point drain is typically near it.
8
Hot and Cold Low Point Drains
Typically the coach has one hot water low point drain and one cold water low point drain, which are used to empty the water lines. Open the
valves to relieve water pressure and drain the water lines. Close the valves for normal operation of the pressurized water system.
9
LED Pancake Light
Some lights in the compartment have built-in switches on the light housing to turn the light on and off. Other lights are operated automatically via
a plunger switch that activates the lights when the compartment door is opened.
