Frost damage cannot be claimed under
warranty.
Shower Tray
The shower tray cannot be expected to drain fully,
some residual water may remain which will require
“mopping up.
Waste (Grey Water System.)
The waste water (often referred to as ‘grey’ water)
from the caravan’s sinks and shower tray are outed
to two outlets just behind the offside wheel.
When setting up your caravan short pieces of waste
pipe hose should be tted to the wastewater outlets
to direct the water into a suitable container. These
are both available from your caravan retailer.
Ensure that the exit ends of the waste water
pipes, that direct the waste water into the
holding container, cannot be submerged by
the waste water in the holding container at
any time.
Upon arrival at the caravan site advice should
always be sought from the site manager as to
where waste (Grey) water is to be disposed of.
water system (plumbing connections should be
checked at the beginning of every season for
frost damage or loose connections).
When using an Aquasource system, do
not sleep or leave the vehicle unattended
without turning off the water source.
Draining and Winterisation of the Water
System
The Bailey Unicorn Caravan maybe in use all the
year round, but when they are not in use, even for
short periods, this procedure should be followed.
One night in freezing temperatures is all that it
is required for expensive, permanent damage to
water system components.
Ensuring that all water is removed from the
Caravan’s pipework, taps and appliances will reduce
the risk of frost damage occurring. Frost damage
can occur when water left in the system freezes and
expands, causing pipework and appliances to split,
crack or burst.
Ideally position the Caravan so the drain valves are
at the lowest point i.e. tilt the caravan.
Turn the pump off
Open all taps/mixers in the mid position, including
the external shower (if tted).
Remove shower handset (including the external
shower, if tted) and shake water out.
Open water heater drain valve and leave open.
Open on board tank drain valve (if present) and
leave open.
Where grey waste tanks are tted, remove all sink
plugs and open the drain tap.
Open any other drain points (if present).
External water components - shake water out of
pump/AquaSource/Aquasmart lter assembly and
store inside the Caravan.
Internal pump - turn on and allow to run to expel
additional water for 2 minutes.
It is essential that the lever of ceramic
ball mixer taps is fully raised and in the
central position. Failure to do this will not
allow both the hot and cold water system
to fully drain and will result in frost damage.
Setting up the Water System.
Ret old lters:
Check all plumbing connections.
It is recommended at this point to steralise your
water container and ush the system through with
a sterilising uid.
Renew old lter after ushing system through.
It is also recommended that the water system is
checked during annual service.
