• Following the arrows marked OPEN on the
Filter Cover, unscrew the Filter Cover.
• Remove and clean the lter.
• Replace the lter.
• With the O-Ring in its groove, replace the
Filter Cover, following the direction of the
Close arrows on the Filter Cover, until fully
seated.
• Under no circumstances should the Whale
Universal pump be run without a lter on the
suction side.
Routine Maintenance
• Ensure the water ll hose ‘O’ ring and socket
are kept free from dirt
• Drain system thoroughly during the winter
months
• Service the inlet annually
• Replace the water lter annually.
• The system is pressure controlled to protect
your motorhome from sustaining damage to
its water system.
• Plumbing connections should be checked
at the beginning and end of each season for
32
frost damage or loose connections.
• When you are using and Aquasource system
it is important that you do not sleep or leave
the vehicle unattended without turning the
water source off at the supply point.
Draining and winterising the water system
Motorhomes are often used all year round,
but when they are not in use, even for short
periods, this procedure should be followed.
One night in freezing temperatures is all that
is required for expensive, permanent damage
to water system components.
• Open all taps, shower controls and shower
rose on/off controls, lift the ceramic ball
mixer tap levers in the central position to
allow both the hot and cold water to drain.
• Open the valves and run the pump to drain
the system.
• Remove the shower head
• To remove the shower head, unscrew by
hand then shake out and store in a dry place.
• Remove the submersible lter and store it
in a dry place
• Open the drain valve next to the water pump.
It is essential that the lever of the
ceramic ball is fully raised and in a
central position. Failure to do this will
not allow both the hot and the cold
water system to fully drain and will
therefore result in frost damage.
Frost damage cannot be claimed for
under warranty.
Shower Tray
Although your shower tray is tted with two
drainage points and every effort has been
made to ensure that the shower tray can drain
completely, some residual water may remain
which will require “mopping up.”
Waste water
It is important that your waste water
(often referred to as grey water) from the
motorhome’s sinks and shower tray is disposed
of in a suitable way.
Upon arrival at a site advice should be sought
from the site manager as to whether there is
a dedicated motorhome service area which
includes a waste (grey) water drain.
