12.60 Amp Pro-Mariner Battery
Charger
Battery Charger Location
Each battery charger monitors and maintains the voltage levels of one or more battery. When the chargers are ON, they
automatically charge the batteries when the voltage drops below the manufacturer’s level. Each charger is mounted in the
engine room at the port transom, outboard corner of the yacht. The chargers are mounted against the port freshwater tank.
The voltage levels of the generator battery are monitored and maintained by a single battery charger. The generator battery
charger is mounted against the port freshwater tank.
FRESHWATER SYSTEM
Flush and sanitize the freshwater system at least once every season.
• Flushing involves draining all water from the system.
• Sanitizing involves using a commercially made freshwater tank sanitizing liquid that is available at many marine supply
stores.
SHOWER
The water ow from a shower head may become restricted due to the accumulation of sediment in the shower head.
Remove the head and rinse with clean water if water ow is restricted. If necessary, clean the discharge holes with a
narrow wire.
WATER TAPS
Periodically remove and clean the lter screens from the sinks’ water taps. Rinse the screens with clean water. If
necessary, clean the screens with a narrow wire. A buildup of debris in the lter screens can block the water ow enough
to cause the pressure water pump to repeatedly cycle on and off.
SHOWER SUMP
Clean the sump and sump lter frequently. Hair, dirt and soap scum collects in the sump. If not removed, it eventually can
clog the sump pump or sump hoses. An infrequently used sump will promote bacteria growth in the sump. Bacteria growth
will promote odors. In addition to keeping the sumps ushed clean, it is a good idea to add waste tank deodorant to the
sump when used infrequently. The deodorant can easily be ushed down any of the drains that empty into it.
PRESSURE WATER PUMP
An in-line lter is installed near the pressure water pump. Clean the lter once a month.
