PLUMBING
CAUTION
!
Never allow the pump to run for long periods of time
without water in the supply tank, as pump damage or
blown fuses may result.
Operation
1. Fill or partially fill the fresh water supply tank.
2. Open the kitchen and bathroom faucets.
3. Turn the water pump switch on, and allow the water to
fill the water line and the hot water heater. The switch
to this pump may be located in the exterior water
compartment, in the kitchen, or in the bathroom.
4. Close each faucet after it delivers a steady stream of
water (close the cold water first). Leave the hot water
faucets on until they also deliver a steady stream of
water. This will ensure that the water heater is filled
with water.
5. The water pump should stop running once all faucets
are closed.
6. The pump is now ready for automatic operation. The
pump will run when a faucet is opened and stop when
a faucet is closed and the correct pressure has been
reached.
Care and Maintenance
All of the water should be drained from the fresh water
system when the unit is not in use for more than one
week.
Troubleshooting
If water doesn’t flow when a faucet is turned on
while using the demand system, use the following
troubleshooting tips.
If the pump is running, but there is no water:
•
Fill the tank.
•
Clear the water line to the pump or the pump inlet
filter.
•
Rotate the city water / tank fill valve to the correct
position.
If the pump isn’t running:
•
Check the pump switch.
•
Check the 12 Volt fuses.
•
Check the electrical connections.
•
Check the battery.
Your installed bathroom and kitchen faucets and fixtures are available in many styles, finishes, and
configurations, often complementing the other fixtures in your coach.
With proper maintenance, the faucets in the
coach should provide years of trouble-free usage. The faucets
and fixtures can be cleaned by wiping with a soft, damp cloth.
Washing with warm water will remove dry water spots. Turn off
the water and drain the pressure before attempting repair or
replacement of the faucet.
Faucets and Fixtures
Avoid using “S.O.S.” type cleaning pads or other
abrasive cleaners because they may scratch the
surface. Do not use cleaners that contain harsh or
abrasive chemicals. Alcohol or similar solvents should
never be used.

Water Filter Care and Maintenance
This article provides basic care and maintenance recommendations for water filters. Your coach may be equipped with a
fresh water filtration system. This system uses extruded carbon filter cartridges to remove sediment and certain impurities
from the incoming water supply. The filter assembly is located in the basement water compartment. Select coach models
may also have additional filters installed for drinking water.
Filters
When To Replace Your Filters
Most water filter manufacturers recommend that you
replace your water filters every six months. These
guidelines are based more on average household size
and average consumption rates rather than your specific
coach. The frequency of filter changes depends upon
your water usage and the quality of water you are using.
As you travel and hook up to different water sources
some may contain more sediment, metals, sulfur and
other impurities which affect the filter life, the taste and
smell of your water. Other factors are how often it is used
and stored and how long water is able to sit in the holding
tank and become warm and stagnate.
Change the filter at least every six months and at any time
you notice decreased water flow or notice unpleasant
taste, odor, or algae after flushing and sanitizing the water
system. Water filters and fresh water system maintenance
are the customer’s responsibility in order to ensure safe
potable water.
