Troubleshooting
Pressure Plumbing. Pressure plumbing leaking will be evident by the pressure
pump continually running intermittently. The fresh water pump is located under
the Saloon stb fwd settee, the optional salt water pump in the aft stb engine
bay.
All water tubing run direct with connectors clearly visible inside cupboards or
behind detachable panels. Blue tube is fresh cold water, red is fresh hot water
and green salt water. Visually check each connector by following the pressure
tubing. Reseat only those connectors that are clearly leaking.
All pressure plumbing use Whale clip lock connectors. Water leakage will usually
occur at a screw or clip lock connector. The outer ring of these connectors clips
out to lock the connector to the hard tubing. The clip lock needs to be clipped
with no pressure in the tubing to reset the fitting.
Take care tightening screwed plumbing fittings, especially Whale plastic
connectors on the hot water reservoir and transom shower, as they depend on a
seal and over tightening can easily break the fitting.
If the water pressure pump is not operating it is most likely the micro switch in
the pressure detector head is burnt out. The pump will sometimes restart by
tapping the pump head. Jabsco Pumps will provide a replacement micro switch.
Relative slow flow of the Galley cold water compared to the hot will be caused
by the optional cold water filter needing to be replaced. The cold fresh water
filter is located under the galley sink cupboard.
Heads. Blocked black water holding tank sea run out. This may be caused by the
macerated black water (mainly toilet paper) settling over the holding tank sea
outlet. It is most evident by the outlet valve being hard to close.
The deck outlet spigot is deliberately located over the black water holding tank
outlet in the holding tank to facilitate churning up this settling. A water hose or
flexible rod pushed down the deck outlet will be directed to the sea outlet.
A persistent blockage will need the black or grey water to be pumped out at a
marina pump out station. Only when the black water holding tank is empty may
the sanitary piping between holding tank outlet valve and sea cock be removed
and cleared.
If the toilet does not drain then either the black water holding tank is full and
needs to be emptied or there is a blockage in the piping up to the tank. This
most often occurs with feminine sanitary objects or too much toilet paper
blocking either the piping or macerator. The macerator can only be cleared by
