PLUMBING SYSTEMS
extended time of non-use with water in the
water heater tank. The water heater should be
drained and bypassed during the winterization
process particularly if introducing RV
antifreeze into the plumbing system.
Water heater bypass
Fig. 5.11 Water heater bypass valves
The water heater bypass is a three-valve
system located behind the water heater. The
water heater bypass valves must be in the
NORMAL position (open the hot and cold
valves, close the mixer – or middle – valve) to
use the water heater (and when sanitizing). If
winterizing the RV plumbing system, position
the three valves to the BYPASS position
(close the hot and cold valves, open the mixer
- or middle - valve).
□
In an RV plumbing system, a valve is
closed by moving the handle
perpendicular to the plumbing line
(preventing water flow).
□
The valve is open if the handle is
positioned in-line with the plumbing line
(allowing water flow).
Please contact your dealer or Jayco
Customer Service if you have any questions
about the valve positions or bypassing the
water heater.
If the RV is to be stored over the winter
months, the water heater must be drained to
prevent potential damage from freezing.
Damage to the water heater caused by
freezing is not warrantable.

AUCETS
Water temperatures over 125
°
F (49
°
C) can
cause severe burns instantly or death from
scalds; therefore, be careful when using
hot water. Always test the water
temperature before showering or washing.
RV faucets operate much the same way as
the faucets in your home. Make sure there is
sufficient water available and, if dry camping,
the 12-volt water pump is turned ON before
operating. To open the faucets, turn the hot
and cold knobs ON and adjust the
temperature to your comfort level. Close the
faucets when a sufficient amount of water is
released. The shower faucet requires a
vacuum breaker when the shower hose and
head are used. There are two purposes for
this breaker:
□
To prevent siphoning water through the
hose from another fixture.
□
To prevent water from being contained in
the hose.
The showerhead DOES NOT have a
complete shut-off valve (the complete shut-off
is at the faucet). The showerhead may drip
slightly in the OFF position after use; this is
normal and does not indicate a leak or defect.
There may be air in the plumbing lines that
will need to be bled out before a steady
stream of water comes from the faucet.
Maintenance
At least two times per year, remove the
aerator screen in the faucets and spray head.
Flush the screens with a strong spray of
water, using caution to prevent parts from
washing down the drain. Dry the screens and
then clear away build up using a stiff wire
brush. Stubborn deposits can often be
removed by soaking the screen in vinegar.
S
INK
To clear a clogged sink, pour into the drain ½
cup of baking soda followed by ½ cup of
vinegar and let stand for three hours.
