WATER SYSTEMS -
Troubleshooting
Water system problems are generally caused by improper use or lack of attention. Improper win-
terizing, poor maintenance, road vibration and campsite water pressure variations are common culprits
of water system failure.
Check all plumbing connections for leaks at least once a year. If the water pump runs when a faucet
is not open, check for a water leak. Close drain valves. If the pump continues to run, take the
motorhome to an authorized dealer for service.
Disinfecting Fresh Water
Disinfecting the water system with chlorine bleach (superchlorination) protects against bacteriologi-
cal or viral contamination from common water sources.
When to disinfect the fresh water system:
• If the motorhome is new.
• If the motorhome has not been used in a long time.
• Every three months.
NOTE:
An independently operated water pump with garden hose connections and a container
to hold the prepared solution may be used to perform this task.
To Disinfect the Water System:
• Remove water filter in galley and install diverter hose.
• Prepare a chlorine bleach solution using one gallon of water and ¼ cup of chlorine bleach.
Use 1 gallon of solution for every 15 gallons of tank capacity. For example: Add 2 2/3 gal-
lons solution to a 40 gallon tank. Add 4 2/3 gallons solution to a 70 gallon tank. Add 6 2/3
gallons to 100 gallon tank. This mixture puts a 50 PPM (parts per million) disinfecting
solution in the water system that will act as a quick-kill dosage for harmful bacteria, virus-
es and slime-forming organisms. Concentrations higher than 50 PPM may damage the
water lines and/or tanks.
• Another method of calculating the amount of chlorine bleach to be used is to multiply the
number of gallons by 0.13. The result is the amount in ounces of chlorine to introduce into
the fresh tank with water.
• Drain the fresh water tank. Close the drain and prepare to add the solution to the fresh
water tank. The method of introduction is up to the owner.
TIP
Use the same hose labeled for potable water to introduce the chlorine solution into the
system. This will disinfect the potable water hose at the same time. Seven flushes will
be required to remove any chlorine residue. Flush the system several times to remove
chlorine residue.
