TIFFIN MOTORHOMES –ALLEGRO BUS® Chapter 11 PLUMBING & BATH FIXTURES
11-11
Exterior Shower
Your Allegro Bus has an exterior shower (Figure 11-13, left-hand
side) for your use and convenience outside. That exterior shower is
located in the sanitation service compartment, which is located on
the driver’s side of the motor home. The exterior shower feature
allows you to do such things as rinse off sand or grass, muddy
shoes, or bathe yourself outside of your motor home. The faucet
operates just as it would in your kitchen or bathroom. In addition
to the shower itself, there is also a soap dispenser conveniently
situated in that same compartment and a light to permit use under
low-light conditions.
Hydro-Hot Heating System
The Allegro Bus will be equipped with a Hydro-Hot heating system (Figure
11-14) that provides a continuous, on-demand supply of domestic hot
water, as interior zone heating where and when it is needed. Both heating
features are accomplished by a unique VDC-Powered Diesel-Fired Burner
and a VAC-Powered Electric Heating Element (120 VAC). These two heating
sources maintain the temperature of the Hydro-Hot’s solution of water and
antifreeze.
To activate the Hydro-Hot heating system, the hydro-hot switch (labeled
“diesel burner switch”) located in the side cabinet above the driver’s seat
must be activated. By activating this switch, a supply of hot water as well as
interior heat can be provided. The heating feature will be controlled by the
thermostat mounted on the wall. It is operated off the
furnace function of the thermostat to provide interior heat. Hot water will be
supplied instantaneously and continuously at any time the diesel burner
switch is activated.
Caution
Be sure the gate valve is “open” when flushing the tank. Do not use the same hose
for the No-Fuss Flush that is used for filling the fresh water tank.
