Section 8: Plumbing System
2.
Attach the short hose supplied with your recreation vehicle to the fresh water connec-
tion inlet (on the utility center or on the outside of the motor home). Place the other
end of the hose in a container holding the sanitized solution. To aid in siphoning, set
the container on a surface approximately (2) feet off the ground. The drain valves must
be turned OFF.
3.
Place the utility center valves in the SANITIZE TANK position.
4.
Turn the water pump ON.
5.
Solution will be drawn into the fresh water tank. When all the solution is in the tank, set
the utility center water valves to the city fill tank position.
6.
Remove the container and the short hose from the fresh water connection inlet.
7.
Attach the hose to the fresh water connection inlet and attach the other end to a potable
pressurized water source.
8.
Turn on the pressurized water source and finish filling the fresh water tank. Monitor the
tank level while filing; DO NOT OVERFILL THE TANK.
9.
When the tank is full, turn off the water source, disconnect the hose from the water
source, and remove it from the fresh water connection inlet.
10. Set the utility center valves to the NORMAL position.
11. Turn the water pump ON.
12.
Open all hot water faucets one by one until water begins to flow continuously and a
chlorine smell is noticeable. Include outside shower faucets (if so equipped).
13. Close the hot water faucets and repeat opening all cold water faucets one by one until
you smell chlorine. Include toilet and outside shower faucets (if so equipped).
14. Let the solution remain in the system for at least four hours when disinfecting with 50
PPM residual chlorine. If a shorter time is desired, a 100 PPM chlorine concentration
should be used for at least one hour.
NOTE: For complete fresh water tank sanitization, driving your unit around
for a short distance will allow the sanitizing solution to splash around all sides
of the tank.
15. After the required period, drain the chlorine solution from the fresh water system (see
Draining the Fresh Water System
). Since the water heater was bypassed there should
be no sanitizer in the (storage) tank water heater.
Rinse the system with fresh water
16.
Re-fill the fresh water tank using clean (potable) water. Refer to
Country Fill or City
Fill in Utility Center
section to re-fill the tank. If city water is not available, the tank
can be siphon (country) filled.
17. Set the tank water heater bypass valves to normal, hot and cold supply lines ON, middle
(mixer) valve OFF.
18. Set utility center water valves to the NORMAL position and turn the pump ON to cir-
culate fresh water through the lines.
19. Open hot and cold lines to all faucets and outside shower until chlorine smell is gone.
20. Restore power to the tank water heater only when it is full of water. For a tankless water
heater, turn the power switch ON (water is heated on demand).
Lingering Chlorine Taste:
If a chlorine taste still lingers in the water, flush the water
system with a solution consisting of one-quart vinegar to five gallons of clean water. Re-
flush as necessary. The vinegar solution may damage the water heater or the water filter, so
both must be bypassed again before performing this operation. To add the vinegar solution,
