Backflow preventer City water fill location
If you have any doubts about a water supply pressure situation, you can always fill your tanks from the water source
using the gravity fill, and use the water pump to supply water from the tanks.
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.
•• If required, attach your pressure regulator to the Roadtrek's city water connection.
•• Attach your fresh water hose.
•• Slowly open the faucet of the city water source.
