WATER SYSTEM MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
As with any mechanical system, your plumbing is subject to the development of problems. Most of these
problems can be greatly reduced, if not altogether eliminated, by following a schedule of planned
inspections and maintenance. Neglect of proper maintenance procedures is the usual cause of most
water system problems.
Road vibrations and shocks, as well as excessive pressure from some city water sources, are the main
physical causes of water system damage. It is important to inspect all plumbing joints and fittings often
for cracks and leaks. Water leaking from a plumbing joint can cause considerable damage if left
unchecked.
A leak somewhere in the fresh water system should be suspected whenever the pump is running and all
faucet's and valves are closed. When the leaking fitting has been identified, attempt to stop the leak by
tightening. DO NOT over tighten. Plastic fittings rarely need to be tightened with a wrench. If these
fittings leak after tightening by hand, disconnect the fitting and check for dirt, scale, or other foreign
substances, which may be causing the leak. Clean the fitting thoroughly and reinstall. If leaking persists,
shut off the water supply until the fitting can be properly replaced. Check with your dealer for correct
method of replacement, and replacement parts.
