LP-Gas Conservation
Your LP-Gas tank holds 35 gallons of fuel. For maximum efficiency, follow these
guidelines:
• Keep the refrigerator in automatic mode to take advantage of the 120 VAC power.
• Use the micro/convection oven rather than the gas stove whenever you are able.
• Limit use of large appliances.
• Utilize the inverter to use house batteries for a portion of your 120 VAC power.
Water Management
If you do not have a water connection you must be much more careful with your resource.
Your fresh water tank will hold 80 gallons of water. Most water is used to bathe, clean
items and flush waste.
The following are some ways you can conserve water.
• Use only a small amount of water in the toilet bowl unless solid waste must be flushed.
• The toilet valve should not be left open for more than a moment.
• When showering or washing, run the water only when soaping or rinsing.
The Plumbing chapter details use of the water system.
Sewer
If you use your water supply wisely it will also maximize the usage of your waste water
holding tanks. Periodically check the holding tank levels and empty them only when there
is a significant amount of waste, even if you have a sewer connection. Black and grey
tanks each have a 40 gallon capacity.
