WATER SYSTEMS
DIPLOMAT 2004
Sinks, shower and clothes washer drains
incorporate a water trap or "P-trap" and auto vents
to prevent waste water holding tank odor from
entering the motorhome. These P-traps are usually
within 54" of a vent tee. These traps must have
water in them to block odors.
During storage water can evaporate and allow
odor into motorhome. If odor is detected run water
into sinks, shower and clothes washer to fill drain
traps. The auto vent by design is to assist in the
flow of water in the drain lines. They enable a
smooth flow of water in the drain without creating
a vacuum.
If the auto vent is stuck in the open position,
grey odors may enter the motorhome. Auto vents
double as "clean-outs" in case the line has to be
“snaked” out.
WARNING: Most chemical mixtures
for holding tank odor control are
poisonous. Follow the product manufacturer's directions
and warnings when using any holding tank additive.
NOTE: During cold weather antifreeze must be added to
the drain traps.
The motorhome is not designed for extended use in below freezing
(32°F/0°C) weather. There are precautionary measures that can be taken for
extended cold weather use.
Interior water lines, fixtures, and drains above the floor are normally pro-
tected from moderate freezing temperatures as long as the furnace is operat-
ing. Cold temperatures can adversely affect water systems below the floor
level because the LP-Gas furnace heat does not provide heat to these compo-
nents. A supplement 12 Volt bay heater and thermal snap disc are located in
the water service bay. The System Heat switch on the monitor panel operates
the bay heater and should be turned on when ambient temperature approach-
es 44ºF (+/- 6ºF) and freezing temperatures may occur.
