PLUMBING
Example Of A 2022 Ventana Water Compartment
The following information is generic for the 2022 Ventana. Components installed may vary by floorplan or optional equipment.
Component(s)
Summary of Funtion or 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 o
ff
shoes and/or feet, bathe a pet, wash your hands, or rinse o
ff
the sewer hose after
dumping the waste water tanks. When finished using the exterior shower, shut o
ff
both the hot and cold valves. Do not simply shut o
ff
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 Reel
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 potable water source via the hose reel.
4
Fresh Water Hose Channel
This channel prevents the compartment door from crushing the potable water 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 di
ffi
cult 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 Light Strip
Some lights are operated automatically via a plunger switch that activates the lights when the compartment door is opened.
10
Oasis Heat Exchanger
The Oasis heat exchanger is used to heat the water compartment in order to keep the bay temperature above freezing. This exchanger may be
located behind a panel or cover and may not be visible from the outside.
Note: Power must be supplied to the Oasis system and the system must be turned on via the control panel or SilverLeaf coach management
system in order for heat to be provided to the water compartment. Once both conditions are met, the thermistor will turn the heater on once the
compartment falls to approximately 40 degrees.
