5.5 Freshwater System Maintenance
Information supplied with water system components by the equipment manufacturers is included
with this manual. Refer to this information for additional operation and service data.
The following items should be done routinely to maintain your freshwater system:
• Remove the filter screens from the faucet spouts and eliminate any accumulation of debris.
A build up of debris can cause the pump to cycle excessively.
• The freshwater system is equipped with a strainer located on the intake line near the pump.
This should be checked at least annually and cleaned as necessary.
• Periodically remove the lid on the shower drain sump assembly located in the center bilge
behind the bilge access hatch in the head compartment. Clean debris from the sump and flush
with clean water.
• Periodically spray the pumps and metal components with a metal protector.
• The batteries must be properly maintained and charged. Operating the pressure pump from
a battery with a low charge could lead to pump failure.
• Add a commercially available potable water conditioner to the water tank to keep it fresh.
• Periodically, remove the water tank vent and clean corrosion and salt buildup from the vent
screens. The screens will prevent insects and other foreign matter from contaminating the
water system. The vent should be replaced if the vent or screens are damaged or badly
corroded. Vent screens that are clogged will prevent the water tank from venting properly
and make filling the tank difficult.
Be sure the screens are secure and that the vent hose is properly routed and attached when
the vent is reinstalled or replaced. The vent hose must be looped above the vent, secured to
the hull near the vent and securely attached to the vent hose fitting with a hose clamp.
THE BATTERIES MUST BE PROPERLY CHARGED. OPERATING THE FRESHWA-
TER PUMP FROM A BATTERY WITH A LOW CHARGE MAY LEAD TO A PUMP
FAILURE.
THE FRESHWATER SYSTEM MUST BE PROPERLY WINTERIZED PRIOR TO WIN-
TER LAY-UP. SEE THE SECTION ON WINTERIZING.
