SYSTEMS
WATER AND DRAINAGE PLUMBING_______________________
Your Venture recreational vehicle has a complete water system, to
carry fresh water, as well as holding tanks for used water. Each
group has its own explanation along with its own operation.
FRESH WATER SYSTEM_________________________________
Tanks
Fresh water tanks are located and installed under the coach
between frame members and protected with a cover, plus a steel
carrier.
All water containers have 3 exits; (1) draw water with pump
throughout the coach, (2) drain spigot for tank, (3) overflow line
attached to fill vent in gravity fill.
Filling Fresh Water System
To place water in to your coach fresh water system, use one of the
following methods.
A. City Water Fill See Figure 1
Water is received into the system through
a direct hookup, referred to as “city water
fill”. Attach a hose to the hook up and
supply line. Open the faucet from the
supply line. Enter the unit, and open any
faucet, to allow air to escape, as there
will be some air pockets.
B. Gravity Water Fill See Figure 2
To place water into the fresh water tank, remove
cap from fill. Insert water hose 4 to 6 inches into
the 1 1/4” flex tube. Open the water supply
faucet. DO NOT overfill the tank as it could burst.
It IS NOT designed to hold pressure. On the fill is
a small screen, 1/2 inch at the 10;00 o’clock position. When water
starts to come out—STOP FILLING NOW! It is the vent.
