variations in the water temperature may occur as the pressure pump cycles.
5.5 Shore Water Connection
A shore water connection allows the direct connection of
the water system to a shore side water supply. This
provides the system with a constant supply of freshwater
and minimizes the pressure pump operation.
A female inlet fitting is mounted in the cockpit. A
pressure reducer is installed in the system along with two
check valves. One check valve keeps water from running
out of the shore water inlet fitting when the pressure
pump operates. The second provides protection for the
pressure pump when the shore power is connected.
To use shore water, connect a hose from the shore water faucet to the shore water fitting on
the boat. Next, turn on the shore water. The pressure pump will not run and the water in the
boat’s water tank will not be used.
Notice:The water tank will not be filled by connecting to shore water.
DO NOT MODIFY OR CHANGE THE SHORE WATER INLET CONNECTOR
WITH ANOTHER TYPE WITHOUT CONSULTING PURSUIT CUSTOMER RELA-
TIONS OR YOUR DEALER. THE USE OF THE WRONG TYPE OF INLET CON-
NECTOR CAN DAMAGE THE FRESHWATER SYSTEM.
5.6 Freshwater System Maintenance
Information supplied with water system components, by the equipment manufacturers, is
included with this manual. Refer to this information for additional operation and service data.
The following items should be done routinely to maintain your freshwater system:
• Periodically, remove the water tank vent and clean corrosion and salt buildup from the
vent screens. The screens will prevent insects and other foreign matter from contaminat-
ing the water system. The vent should be replaced if the vent or screens are damaged or
badly corroded. Vent screens that are clogged will prevent the water tank from venting
properly and make filling the tank difficult.
Be sure the screens are secure and that the vent hose is properly routed and attached when
the vent is reinstalled or replaced. The vent hose must be looped above the vent, secured
to the hull near the vent and securely attached to the vent hose fitting with a hose clamp.
