5. When water stops coming out of the transom shower hose, turn Off the freshwater pump breaker, and reinstall the
transom shower head on the hose.
6. Remove all of the remaining water from the lines using the compressed air method and/or the gravity draining
method (described below).

Compressed Air Water Removal Method
Using an air compressor with an air hose and nozzle:
1. Remove the water line from the outlet side of the freshwater
pump (opposite side from filter).
2. Open the faucet that is furthest away from the freshwater
pump.
3. Place the air nozzle against the end of the just removed water
line and blow air through the system.
4. When water stops coming out of the faucet, stop the air and
Close
the faucet.
5. One at a time, repeat this process on
all
faucets and showers.
6. Reinstall the water line to the outlet side of the freshwater
pump (opposite side from filter).
Gravity Draining Water Removal Method

2. Remove the drain plug from the tee fitting on the freshwater tank connecting pipe.
3. When the water has stopped draining from the freshwater tanks and the water lines, replace the drain plug.
