All the water should be drained from the freshwater system when the unit is not in use for extend-
ed periods. For more detailed information regarding the water pump, one should refer to the wa-
ter-pump manufacturer’s brochure in your Allegro Breeze Owner’s Information Package.
CITY WATER CONNECTION
When connecting your unit to city water, use the water hose manufactured and labeled for potable
water service—this will assure that the hose selected for use will not alter the taste of the water (Figure
13-6).
To connect the city water supply, connect one end of the hose to the city
water supply.
Turn the city water supply “on” for a few seconds to clear the line. Once
the hose has been fl ushed, turn the supply “o ff .” Connect the other end of
the hose to the city-water connections on the motorhome. Once the city
water fi ll valve (Figure 13-7) is opened, water is supplied to the freshwater
system including the hot water heater, faucets, and toilet. Turn “on” the
water supply and open all of the faucets to clear any trapped air within the
plumbing lines within the motor home.
Once any air pockets have purged from the water lines and water fl ows
freely, close all of the faucets. Th e city water supply is pressurized; there-
fore, the water pump is not needed when the water system of the vehicle is
connected to the city water system.
