PLUMBING SYSTEM
BATHROOM TUB / SHOWER
The shower faucet includes a vacuum breaker for the shower. There are two purposes for
this breaker:

 To prevent water from being retained in the hose.
The showerhead DOES NOT have a complete shut-off valve (the complete shut-off is at the
faucet). The showerhead may drip slightly in the OFF position after use; this is normal and
does not indicate a leak or defect.
There may be air in the plumbing lines that will need to be bled out before a steady stream
of water comes from the faucet.
The bathing facilities in your recreation vehicle function similar to those in your home. Keep
the water heater and holding tank capacities in mind when using the fresh water system. The
used water will drain through the plumbing pipes into the grey water holding tank.

Unlike your home, the recreation vehicle does not contain a water pressure balance valve. If
someone is using the shower, it is recommended that the fresh water system NOT BE USED

Maintenance
Refer the manufacturer’s user guide or label instructions for detailed cleaning information.
The tub/shower walls in your recreation vehicle are made of ABS plastic material. Use a
mild detergent soap and warm water to clean. Do not use gritty or abrasive particle soaps or
scouring compound to clean ABS plastic. Avoid using “Citrus” or biodegradable cleaners
which contain “D-Limonene.” They will damage plastic materials. Contact your dealer
for repair or replacement.
FAUCETS
The bathroom, kitchen and outside shower faucets operate much the same way as the faucets

turned ON before operating.
NOTE: There may be air in the water plumbing lines which needs to
be bled out before a steady stream of water comes from the faucet.
Water temperatures over 125°F (49°C) can cause severe burns instantly or
death from scalds; therefore, be careful when using hot water. Always test the
water temperature before showering or washing.
