NOTE: If needed, sanitize the water system prior to travel.
Water Pressure Regulator (customer supplied)
Excessive pressure from the water supply source may be encountered in some parks, espe-
cially in mountain regions when using the fresh water inlet or black tank flush. Water pres
-
sure regulators are available to protect your recreational vehicles plumbing system against
such high pressure.
Fresh Water Holding Tank
There may be several ways to fill the fresh water tank depending on the model. For details
of each method, refer to the Utility Center or Water Connection section. There are plastic
overflow tubes in the fresh water holding tank which allow water to flow out of the water
tank. Occasionally, you may see water coming from the overflow tubes when the fresh wa
-
ter holding tank is filled. This is normal and can be a result of the recreation vehicle being
parked on an incline, or the motion caused by starting or stopping during travel.
12-volt Water Pump
There must be sufficient 12-volt DC power to run the wa
-
ter pump when your recreation vehicle is not hooked up to
city water. Once activated, the water pump (also known
as the demand pump) will self-prime, and provide water.
The water pump continues to run until maximum pressure
is achieved and shut off. The water pump will automati
-
cally re-start when it senses a drop in the water pressure.
The pump is designed for intermittent use only. Using
the pump continuously or with high pressure will shorten
the life of the pump and is not covered in your warranty.
Some cycling may occur, depending on the volume of water being released. The water
pump is engineered with a check valve to prevent water from back flowing into the fresh
water supply tank.

NOTE: The water pump switches should be in the OFF position when the
recreation vehicle is left unattended for any amount of time.
Maintenance
Periodically check the in-line water pump strainer for accumulated debris. To clean, shut
A water pressure regulator is recommended to prevent damage to the plumb-
ing system or components. To prevent damage when using the city water
connection, a 45 lb. (315 KPa) rated water pressure regulator is recommended.
 Do not cap, block or modify the fresh water tank overflow tubes in any
way. Enough water pressure can build up during the filling process to
damage the plumbing system if the overflow tubes are obstructed.
 Be careful not to overfill the fresh water holding tank. It can pressurize
the tank, causing leakage and water damage and void the warranty. DO
NOT leave the tank unattended while filling.
