for any leaks. If any leaks are noted, turn
OFF the water supply immediately and
make the necessary repairs before you
again turn ON the water supply. Remove
any trapped air from the water system by
opening all faucets until the air is exhaust-
ed and there is a steady fl ow of water.
Close the faucets after the air is removed.
Always turn OFF the dockside water
supply source when leaving your yacht
unattended. A leak in the system could
result in fl ooding and may cause your
yacht to sink.
Fresh Water Lines (Cold Water and
Hot Water): The fresh water lines carry
the water from the fresh water sources,
the water heater, and the various faucets
located in the Galley and Head areas of
your 34C. They are constructed of poly-
butylene plastic material and are 1/2 inch
inside diameter. The COLD WATER lines
have pale blue manufacturer’s lettering
and the HOT WATER lines have pale red
manufacturer’s lettering for identifi cation
purposes. The fresh water lines require
minimal maintenance, but they should be
visually examined on a regular basis for
any leaks, chafi
ng or cracking. Tighten
any loose connections as necessary. See
your Silverton dealer for inspection of any
suspected defective fresh water lines and
their replacement, if necessary.
Refer to the WINTERIZATION AND
STORAGE PAGES in the Cleaning and
Maintenance Section of this Owner’s
Manual for the proper preparation and
maintenance of your FRESH WATER
SYSTEM prior to seasonal storage of
your yacht.
