SYSTEM OPERATIONS-73
SHOWER SUMP PUMP SYSTEM
Your 45C is equipped with two showers.
The V-Berth Shower is on the starboard
side of the boat, and the other shower is
on the port side of the boat. Each shower
is equipped with a separate Automatic
Sump Pump (Refer to the Mechanical
Schematic in the Schematics Section of
this Owner’s Manual for the location of
the Shower Sump Pump). As water drains
from the shower into the Sump Pump it
reaches a certain level, that raises an
automatic switch lever, which activates
the Shower Sump Pump and the water
is pumped overboard. The photo below
shows the Shower Sump Pumps.
Access to the Shower Sump Pump is
through a hatch located on the passage-
way
fl oor. The photo below shows the
panel removed.
The Shower Sump Pump System op-
erates on 24V DC electrical power. The
fuses for the Shower Sump Pumps are
behind the DC Electrical Panel in the
Salon. Refer to the Electrical Pages of
this section of this Owner’s Manual for the
location of the fuses.
General maintenance of the Shower
Sump Pump System involves periodic
cleaning to remove any accumulated
debris. If you notice that the shower does
not drain properly, check the pump basket
for debris and clean, if necessary. Re-
move the six (6) screws securing the top
cover for access to the debris basket and
automatic
fl oat switch. If the shower still
does not drain properly, check the opera-
tion of the pump by manually raising the
automatic
fl oat switch. If the Sump Pump
is operable, but will not drain properly,
check all drain lines for debris and clean
as needed. See your Silverton dealer for
further inspection and repair if the shower
continues to drain improperly.
Refer to the Winterization and Storage
section of this Owner’s Manual for the
proper preparation and maintenance of
the SHOWER SUMP PUMP SYSTEM
prior to seasonal storage.
