Section 8: Plumbing System
Outside Shower and Courtesy Light
A handheld shower assembly with both hot and cold water is available in the utility center
for washing or rinsing. The coiled hose for the shower has a quick connect fitting that at -
taches between the shower control knobs. Be sure the 12 volt power for the water pump is
on, or the city water connector has water available to it.
Water should
always be turned off using the hot / cold control knobs rather than turning off
the water with the lever on the shower head. Turning off the water with the shower head le -
ver can create a condition where the hot and cold water will mix through the outside shower
faucet, thereby reducing the temperature of the hot water. It can appear as though the hot
water heater is not working properly.
After the water has been allowed to drain from the shower head, replace it in the exterior
universal docking center.
The courtesy light is operated with a rocker switch located on the utility center panel.
NOTE: Any remaining water in the shower hose will drip or run out; this
is not a leak but performs as intended.
Faucets
The bathroom, kitchen and outside shower faucets operate much the same way as the faucets
in your home. Make sure there is sufficient water available and the 12-volt water pump is
turned ON before operating.
NOTE: There may be air in the water plumbing lines which needs to be
bled out before a steady stream of water comes from the faucet.
Bathroom Tub / Shower
Keep the water heater and holding tank capacities in mind when using the fresh water sys-
tem. The used water will drain through the plumbing pipes into the grey water holding tank.
 Be sure the water heater is ON and had sufficient time to heat the water.
 If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water pump is ON.
Unlike your home, the recreational vehicle does not contain a water pressure balance valve.
If someone is using the shower, it is recommended that the fresh water system NOT BE
USED until they are finished.
Water temperatures over 125°F (49°C) can cause severe burns instantly there-
fore, be careful when using hot water. Always test the water temperature
before showering or washing.
drained to prevent damage from freezing. Damage to the water heater caused by freezing
is not warrantable. It is recommended the water heater be drained and bypassed during the
winterization process, particularly if introducing RV antifreeze into the plumbing sys-
tem. Never drain the water heater when it is HOT or UNDER PRESSURE.
