City water connection, on driver's side below rear
bumper
Your Roadtrek has a pressure regulator built in.
If you have any doubts about water pressure, you can
always fill your tank using the gravity fill, and use your
water pump to supply water.
The city water inlet connection is located under the rear bumper
on the driver's side of the vehicle.
Roadtrek recommends that you use a dedicated single
purpose potable-water hose. These are usually white in
color. Buy a new one and use it only for filling your tanks
and connecting to city water. View any hose lying around a
campground with extreme skepticism, especially it there's a
wastewater dump nearby. Large RVs use hoses to flush
their wastewater system.
To connect the Roadtrek's water system to an outside source:
•• Turn the water pump off.
•• Close all interior faucets.
•• Flush old water and any contaminants out of the water supply faucet.
•• Connect your fresh water hose to the faucet.
•• Attach a fresh water hose to the the pressure regulator.
•• Slowly open the faucet of the city water source.
•• The city water connection by-passes the water pump and fresh water tank. Therefore, the use of these items is not
necessary when connected directly to an external water source.
To disconnect the city water connection:
•• Turn off the external water source.
•• Open a faucet to relieve the pressure in the system. Failure to do so will not damage your vehicle, but may result in an
unexpected shower. The galley sink is a convenient place to do this.
