Section 8: Plumbing System
162
It is important to prevent solid waste buildup. Follow the toilet manu-
facturer’s recommended instructions each time after emptying the black
water holding tank.
To prevent help toilet blockage, always use RV grade single-ply toilet pa-
per. Do not flush paper towels, diapers, sanitary napkins or other foreign
objects down the toilet.
Do not use chlorine (undiluted) or caustic chemicals, such as laundry
bleach or drain opening types, in the toilet system. These products dam-
age the seals in toilets and dump valves.
Spray Port (if so equipped)
Your RV may include a Spray Port on the exterior door side of the
trailer. This Spray Port provides a way to rinse items off outside
the RV or can be used to extinguish a campfire. There are no fau
-
cets to control (cold only) water flow. Water flow is controlled by
the pump if dry camping or city water if using pressurized water.
There is a removable spray nozzle at the end of the coiled hose.
The hose is typically stored under the bed.
Using the Spray Port:
Connect the end of the blue coiled hose
into the fitting on the Spray Port. It has a collar on the fitting
which operates similar to an air hose fitting. Pull back the collar
on the Spray Port fitting, insert the end of the hose into the collar
and release. The hose locks into the fitting. With the water sup
-
ply turned on, pull the trigger on the spray nozzle until you have
the desire water flow.
The water line supplying water to the sprayer must be drained if the RV is being transported,
stored or if freezing weather is expected. This water line can be winterized with RV anti-
freeze. Refer to
Winterizing the Plumbing System
for instructions on draining and winter-
izing the Spray Port.
NOTE:
DO NOT
use this as a potable water
source.
