SYSTEM OPERATIONS-51
HOT WATER SYSTEM
Your 34C is equipped with a 10.5 gallon
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 34C is a “high
recovery” model, meaning 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
behind the closet in the Mid-Stateroom.
Operation of the water heater is as fol-
lows:
Be certain the water heater is full of wa-
ter. 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 Electrical Pages in
this section of this manual explain the
location of this switch.
NOTE: The water heater will operate on
AC electrical 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).
