HOWTO: Potable Water Use
Your Roadtrek can operate in either fully self-contained mode, or can be connected to a water supply such as a campsite's
faucet.
The city water connection is in the driver's side front access bay, to the left of the propane tank. Unscrew the white plastic
protective cap and connect your clean hose to the water faucet and to a water pressure regulator attached to this connection
point. Turn the faucet on and check for leaks, tightening the connections as necessary.
supplies, purchase and install a pressure regulator inline with the water connection.
In a typical campground you may see the faucet with a backflow preventer attached. These look similar to a pressure
regulator but do not affect the pressure. The backflow preventor is there to protect the campground. You need the pressure
regulator to protect yourself from excess pressure.
