Monarch SE 2004----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Section 6 Water Systems | 237
The Water Systems section contains information and instruction for the
operation and care of the various water system equipment found in the
motorhome. The motorhome is equipped with two separate water systems.
Optional water equipment will also be discussed, so not all information may be
applicable to the motorhome. More detailed information with CAUTION or
WARNING instructions for the various equipment, other than what is found in this
section, can be found in the manufacturer’s manual in the owner information box.
It is hard to imagine how much water is used by the average person everyday.
Newcomers to a self-contained motorhome soon discover water does not last very
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 plenty of water to meet personal needs once habits are adjusted.
Fresh Water System:
The motorhome contains a full freshwater plumbing system capable of
operating as a self-contained unit (Fresh Water) or for utilizing a pressurized
water source (City Water). The fresh water system consists of the fresh water
tank, water pump, gravity fill water filter and a city/fresh water connection. For
the standard model units, use a water hose that is marked for potable water use
only. Care of the hose is a must. After each use, drain the water hose and coil
the hose neatly. Attach the ends together to keep debris and insects out of
the hose.
Domestic Hot Water:
Domestic hot water will be supplied using a LP-Gas/Electric water
heater. The system is highly efficient in producing and maintaining an
adequate supply of hot water.
