PLUMBING
10
Saniflo Lift Station Pump
Certain floorplans may use a lift pump in locations where plumbing drains are too low or too far away for gravity drains to effectively reach the
waste water holding tanks. The design is a small collection tank with an inlet from the sink or shower with a submergible pump to push the water
out of the discharge to the holding tank. The pump starts automatically (if 120 volt power is being supplied) as soon as the bath, shower, or sink
begins to drain. It shuts down when the water has been drained.
Note: Only select floorplans are equipped with lift station pumps, which may or may not be located in the water compartment.
11
Sewage (Black) Tank
The black tank is generally for sewage waste from the stool. It is typically located between the frame rails in the water compartment. This tank
may be located behind a panel or cover and may not be visible from the outside.
12
Sewage (Black) Tank Dump Gate
Valve with T-Handle
In conjunction with the sewage holding tank, the sewage tank dump valve provides adequate and safe storage and/or controls the disposal of
waste materials. Open the black tank gate valve all the way by pulling on the T-handle. The tank will start to drain to the macerator or drain outlet
as soon as the T-handle is pulled. The 4" drain line or macerator hose should be used to direct waste to the dump station for proper disposal.
13
Sewage (Black) Tank Rinse
Connection
When draining your sewer tank, attach a water hose to the sewage tank rinse connection. After the tank is drained, leave the gate valve open,
and open the water valve to the attached hose, allowing water to spray inside the sewage tank for several minutes to flush and rinse the tank.
14
Sewer Hose Hatch (Access Port)
The sewer hose hatch is a removable cover that allows the sewer hose or the small macerator hose to exit through the compartment floor in
order to connect to a proper dump station. This allows the compartment baggage door to close without hindrance from the hose. The cover may
be threaded or clipped.
Note: When routing the sewer or macerator hose through the hatch, do not place on or near the Oasis, generator, or engine exhaust pipes.
Otherwise, damage may occur.
15
Waste (Gray) Water Tank
The gray water holding tank is typically located in the underbelly of the coach, sometimes on top of the fresh water tank. It is primarily used for
the drainage from the kitchen and bath sinks, shower, and the washing machine (if equipped).This tank may be located behind a panel or cover
and may not be visible from the outside.
16
Waste (Gray) Water Tank Dump
Gate Valve with T-Handle
In conjunction with the gray (waste) water holding tank, the gray (waste) tank dump valve provides adequate and safe storage and/or controls
the disposal of waste water. Open the gray (waste) gate valve all the way by pulling on the T-handle. The tank will start to drain to the macerator
or drain outlet as soon as the T-handle is pulled. The 4" drain line or macerator hose should be used to direct waste to the dump station for
proper disposal. Newmar recommends dumping and flushing the gray (waste) water holding tank after the black (sewage) holding tank.
17
Water Pump Switch with LED
Indicator
Press the water pump switch momentarily to activate the water pump. The LED illuminates when the pump is activated.
18
Water Pump with Filter
When not connected to city water, the coach's water pump is used to pump and pressurize water from the fresh tank for distribution through the
hot and cold water lines. When activated, the water pump will automatically turn on and off to maintain proper water pressure in the coach.
19
Whole House Water Filter
The whole house water filter system uses a replaceable extruded carbon filter cartridge to remove sediment and certain impurities from the
incoming water supply. This filters the fresh water as it is brought in to the coach from the city water connection through the hose or hose reel.
20
Winterizing and Antifreeze Inlet
Valves (A and B)
The winterizing valves are only used during the coach winterization process. To determine proper valve positioning throughout the process,
follow the posted instructions in the coach water compartment for the A and B valves. These valves may be located outside of the main water
compartment on some coaches.

Water Pump Operation and Basic Troubleshooting
This article provides an overview of the water compartment heating via a forced-air furnace. Coaches equipped with a
forced-air furnace have a designated heat duct for the water compartment in the basement to reduce the risk of freezing.
Water Compartment Heating via a Forced-Air Furnace
Heat output to the water compartment is only operational when the furnace is heating the interior of the coach.
