CITY WATER HOOKUP
In your utility compartment on the roadside of the motorhome is the city water hose connection and various
other valves. They are clearly marked and your dealer should have explained the functions of each at time
of purchase.
NOTE: When you use the "fresh water tank fill" valve and fill the tank it will expel any overflow
under the coach. When you turn the rill valve off, the overflow will not cease immediately, but will
slowly taper off.
Use a high-pressure hose of at least ½” diameter. It should be one that is tasteless, odorless and non-toxic
designed for RV use. The city water inlet is a standard garden hose thread. We suggest you carry two
lengths of hose. This way you have the ability to reach hookups further away than normal, plus you have a
spare hose should one fail or become damaged unexpectedly. Turn the water heater bypass to the normal
flow position as described under self-contained.
After hooking up the hose and turning on the city water valve provided in the park, slowly open a faucet.
There will be a lot of spurts and sputtering until all the air is expelled from the motorhome system. If the
water heater is empty it will take some time before all the air is expelled and you get a steady flow of water
at the faucet. Once a steady flow is achieved at one faucet the others should be opened long enough to
expel the air in the lines going to them.
During city water operation the water pump switch should be in the off position. A check valve built into
the pump protects it from city water pressure.
Your plumbing system has a built in pressure regulator to protect your lines and faucets from extremely
high pressures on some city water systems.
Information on dump valve and black tank flush use can be found under DRAIN AND WASTE SYSTEM
further back in this section.
