SECTION 7

PLUMBING SYSTEMS

Initial Water Line Priming

1. Make sure that all water drain valves are

closed, including water heater valve. (Refer

to Section 10.)

2. Turn water pump switch to “OFF” position.

3. Fill water tank.

4. Open all faucets, hot and cold.

5. Turn on pump switch.

6. Close each faucet as it begins to deliver a

steady stream of water (close cold water

first). Leave hot water faucets on until they

also deliver a steady stream of water. This

will ensure that the water heater is filled with

water.

7. Check to be sure pump stops soon after all

faucets have been closed.

8. Pump is now ready for automatic operation.

Pump will start when a faucet is opened and

stop when the faucet is closed.

DISINFECTING FRESH WATER

SYSTEMS ON RECREATION

VEHICLES

(As approved by the U.S. Public Health

Service)

To assure complete disinfection of your fresh

water system, it is recommended that the follow-

ing procedure be followed on a new system, one

that has not been used for a period of time, or

one that may have become contaminated. This

procedure is also recommended before long

periods of storage such as over winter.

1. Prepare a chlorine solution using 1 gallon of

water and 1/4 cup of household bleach

(sodium hypochlorite solution). With tank

empty, pour chlorine solution into the tank.

Use 1 gallon solution for each 15 gallons of

tank capacity. This procedure will result in a

residual chlorine concentration of 50 ppm in

the water system. If a 100 ppm concentration

is required as discussed in item 3, use 1/2

cup of household bleach with 1 gallon of

water to prepare the chlorine solution. One

gallon of the solution should be used for

each 15 gallons of tank capacity.

2. Complete filling of tank with fresh water.

Open each faucet and run the water until a

distinct odor of chlorine can be detected in

the water discharged. Do not forget the hot

water taps.

3. Allow the system to stand at least 4 hours

when disinfecting with 50 ppm residual

chlorine. If a shorter time period is desired,

then a 100 ppm chlorine concentration

should be permitted to stand in the system

for at least 1 hour.

4. Drain and flush with fresh water.

WATER PURIFIER

(FILTER) SYSTEM

The water purifier system uses a flow-

through activated carbon filter that removes

chlorine and other impurities, resulting in clean,

taste-free and odorless drinking water.

Chlorine is poisonous - recap bottle

and clean utensils after use.

Never use automotive type antifreeze

in your potable water system as it is

poisonous.
