FRESH WATER
SYSTEM
________________
The purpose of the Fresh Water System is
to provide a supply of pressurized potable
water to the Galley, Heads and Transom
Exterior Shower on demand and as needed.
Your 352 MY has two (2) separate systems
that are independent of each other and they
are identi ed as follows:
Fresh Water Pump System
Dockside Water Supply System
Fresh Water Pump System
The Fresh Water Pump System on your 352
MY consists of the following components:
Fresh Water Tank (100 gallon capacity):
The fresh water tank is located beneath the
berth in the aft stateroom (See Mechanical
Layout on Page 155 and 156, which illus-
trates the location of the fresh water tank).
It is lled through a ll tting that is marked
“WATER” on the ll cap, which is located on
the Starboard side of the transom, adjacent
to the aft deck stairway (See Deck Layout
on Page 153, which illustrates the location
of the fresh water tank ll tting).
Fill the fresh water tank
ONLY with potable water that is safe for
drinking. DO NOT ll with water that may
be of questionable quality as serious ill-
ness or death may occur.
Fresh Water Pump: The fresh water pump
is located to the rear of the water heater
(See Mechanical Layout on Page 152 and
153, which illustrates the location of the wa-
ter heater and the fresh water pump). The
fresh water pump operates on DC electri-
cal power controlled by a breaker switch
located on the AC/DC Electrical Panel (See
AC/DC Electrical Panel Layout on Page
159, which illustrates the location of the
fresh water pump breaker switch). The fresh
water pump is equipped with an automatic
pressure switch and when it is supplied
with electrical power, it will operate until the
entire fresh water system is pressurized to
a preset level. Once the required pressure
is obtained, the fresh water pump will auto-
matically shut off. The fresh water system
should maintain the preset level of water
pressure until one of the faucet or shower
valves is opened. When the required pres-
sure is lowered below the preset level, the
fresh water pump will automatically return
to operation.
Fresh Water Filter: The water pumped
from the fresh water tank ows through a
lter located on the suction side of the fresh
water pump. Its purpose is to remove impuri-
ties that may be present in the fresh water
system prior to its consumption. The lter is
easily removed from the fresh water pump
and should be cleaned on a regular basis
(See photograph below, which illustrates the
location of the Fresh Water Filter).
