WATER SYSTEMS - INTRODUCTION
This section contains information about the operation and care of the various water system equip-
ment found in the motorhome. Optional water equipment will also be discussed, so not all information
may be applicable to the motorhome. More detailed information with CAUTION or WARNING instruc-
tions for the various equipment, other than what is found in this section, can be found in the manufac-
turer’s manual in the owner information box.
It is hard to imagine how much water is used by the
average person. Newcomers to a self-contained motorhome
soon discover water does not last long unless consumption
is drastically reduced. For example, less water can be used
for showering if the shower is turned off while soaping
down, then turned back on to rinse. This way a good
shower uses a couple gallons of water or less. There is plen-
ty of water to meet personal needs once habits are adjusted.
Fresh Water System:
The fresh water system consists of the fresh water tank,
water pump, water filter, a city/fresh water connection, and
a water hose (not supplied) for potable water use only.
Proper care of fresh water connections is a must. After
each use, drain the water hose and screw the ends together.
A pressure regulator is attached to the city water/tank fill
connection. After reach use, attach the end cap to keep out
debris and insects.
Waste Water System:
The waste water system consists of a waste holding
tank (grey water), a sewage holding tank (black water),
flush system, toilet and drains.
WARNING:
Water is electrically conductive. Do not use any
electrically powered item or electrical outlet that
may be exposed to a water source. Such use can
result in a serious shock causing injury or
death.
