SYSTEM OPERATIONS-49
Your 33C is equipped with a 10.5 gallon Hot Water
Heater, which is operated on the A/C Electrical
System. Cold water is supplied to the Water Heater
via the Fresh Water Pump, which is then heated for
distribution when desired. Similar to the water heater
in your home, there is always a continuous supply of
water to maintain a full tank at all times. The Water
Heater in your 33C is a “high recovery” model, mean-
ing the cold water entering the tank is heated very
quickly to replace the hot water as it is used.
The photo above shows the Water Heater.
Operation of the Water Heater is as follows:
Be certain the Water Heater is full of water. You
can easily check this by turning ON a hot water
faucet. If water fl ows from the faucet, the Water
Heater is full.
If the Water Heater is not full of water, damage to
the heating elements may result when electrical
power is turned ON to the unit.
Turn ON the Water Heater Breaker Switch, which
is located on the AC/DC Electrical Panel. The Electri-
cal Pages in this section of this manual explain the
location of this switch.
NOTE: The Water Heater will operate on AC elec-
trical current only. You must either plug in your
Shore Power Cord or operate your Generator (if so
equipped) for the Water Heater to function.
Allow suffi
cient time for the Water Heater to heat
its contained water before using (approximately 1/2
hour).
General maintenance of the Hot Water System is
as follows:
Inspect all water lines and their connections at
regular intervals. Tighten connections as needed. If
the water lines appear worn or are not fl exible, see
your Silverton Dealer for replacement.
Manually operate the pressure relief valve on the
Water Heater at least once a year (See photograph
below, which illustrates the location of the valve).
