PLUMBING & BATH FEATURES
FRESHWATER LINES
Check all of the plumbing connections for leaks at least on an annual basis.
If the water pump runs when all faucets are turned “o,” check for a possible leak. Be sure that the drain
valves are closed. Connections at the kitchen and bathroom faucets normally seal by hand-tightening
them and then making an additional half-turn with a wrench.
If a tting leak persists, disconnect it completely and visually inspect it for mineral deposits or foreign
material stuck on the sealing surfaces. Clean the surfaces thoroughly and reinstall the tting. Take the
motorhome to an authorized Tin Motorhomes service center for additional repairs if the water sys-
tem continues to leak.
Follow the winterizing instructions given in Chapter 16 to reduce risk of leaks caused by cracks from
freezing pipes. Le unchecked, freezing damage can be extensive and expensive.
WASTEWATER SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
e waste drainage system was designed to provide adequate and safe storage and/or disposal of waste
materials. All of the materials used in the fabrication of this system are tested by a nationally recog-
nized testing laboratory. e drainage system uses plastic piping and ttings connected to the sinks,
toilet, and holding tanks.
is plumbing permits the drainage of these xtures to an outside termination. e vehicle should be
reasonably level for best operation of both of the wastewater systems.
ere are two, separate wastewater systems. e gray-water system is for wastewater from the sinks and
shower. e black-water system is for sewage waste from the toilet. Each wastewater tank has its own
control valve and both drain through a common sewer-drain hose.
