SECTION 8
PLUMBING SYSTEM

4. Place the utility center valves in the
“Normal” position.
5. Turn on the water pump (make sure you
have sufficient 12-volt power).
6. Water will be pumped from the fresh water
tank to all faucets.
S
ANITIZATION
Potable water systems require periodic
maintenance to deliver a consistent flow of
fresh water. For your personal safety, the
plumbing system should be sanitized when
your RV is new, at the beginning and end of
each season and when the water system
becomes contaminated (or approximately
every three months of use).
How to sanitize
1. Level the RV and drain the fresh water
system.
2. Prepare a chlorine solution using 1/4 cup
of household bleach (sodium hypochlorite
solution) to one gallon (3.785 liters) of
water in a container. Prepare one gallon of
solution for every 15 gallons of tank
capacity. This will result in a residual
chlorine concentration of 50 ppm in the
water system.
If a 100-ppm concentration is required as
discussed in step 13, use ½ cup of
household bleach with one gallon of water
to prepare the chlorine solution. One
gallon of the solution should be used for
each 15 gallons of tank capacity.
3. Attach the intake hose to the city fill
connection Place the free end of the
intake hose in the bucket of chlorine
solution.
To assist the siphoning process, put the
container on a surface approximately two
feet above ground level.
4. Turn the water heater valves to the
“BYPASS” position.
5. Move the valves to the “Sanitize Tank”
position. The low point drains must be
closed for the chlorine solution to siphon
through the lines.
6. Turn the water pump ON.
If the water pump fails to self-prime,
temporarily open the low point drains
(close the low point drains as soon as the
water pump primes [chlorine solution will
begin draining out] and before continuing
to the next step).
7. After the recommended amount of
solution is in the tank, turn OFF the water
pump.
8. Turn the “water heater bypass” valve to
the NORMAL position.
9. Continue filling the fresh water tank with
clean (potable) water until it is full.
10. Open the hot water line on all the faucets
(kitchen, lavatory, shower and outside
shower) until water begins to flow
continuously and a chlorine smell is
noticeable.
11. Close the hot water lines and repeat with
the cold water lines on the faucets.
12. Let the solution remain in the system for at
least four hours when disinfecting with 50-
PPM residual chlorine.
If a shorter time period is desired, then a
100-PPM chlorine concentration should be
permitted to sit in the system for at least
one hour.
13.
After the required period, drain the
chlorine solution from the fresh water
system (see Draining the fresh water
system).
Some solution may remain in the water
heater and will be flushed in the following
steps:
Failure to sanitize the potable water
system could result in death or serious
illness.
Chlorine is poisonous. Always recap the
household bleach bottle and clean utensils
and containers after use.
