8.4 SEPTIC SYSTEM
The system should be empty during storage at freezing temperatures.
➢ Empty the toilet bowl and septic tank/blackwater tank for contents BEFORE lifting
the boat out of the water and refill one time with water before emptying again. Fill
with mixed anti-freeze.
➢ Use anti-freeze in the toilet and pump it through (use anti-freeze mixed with water,
pure anti-freeze can damage the seals).
➢ Control all hoses and couplings. Retighten the hose clamps. Keep all valves
open.
➢ Demount all hoses from all filters and pumps.
Drain the filter for the toilet water inlet.
CAUTION
Always mix anti-freeze with water. Pure anti-freeze will damage the system.
8.5 FRESHWATER SYSTEM
The freshwater system must be completely drained if the boat is exposed to
freezing temperature.
➢ Open all valves including the aft shower.
➢ Open all taps and run until empty.
➢ Close the pantry pump when the system only delivers air.
➢ Let all taps be open during the winter.
➢ Take off the shower handgrips.
➢ Empty the water tanks.
