2. Before winter storage the water system
must be completely drained and the filter
cartridge removed. Also recharge the
pump assembly or the blanking plug.
If you use the Truma external shower
(optional) and have therefore installed the
‘connector’, please drain the filter housing
by connecting up the outside shower and
allowing the remaining water to drain via
the open shower head. The filter hole may
be sealed with the filter cap.
3. Clean the water system at the start and
end of the season with sterilising fluid (see
notes under sterilising).
Sterilising
1. When cleaning the water system at the
start or end of the season It is advisable to
use a sterilising fluid, e.g. Chempro SDP
or similar. It is recommended that for this
operation the filter is removed as the fluid
reduces the effectiveness of a new filter.
2. Flush the system thoroughly to remove the
effective fluid traces.
3. After sterilising the system at the start of
the season it is recommended that a new
Ultraflow filter cartridge should be fitted.
How to prepare your water system for
winter use
During winter caravanning it is recommended
to keep the water container within the caravan
to prevent freezing.
This can be achieved by fitting an Ultraflow
Compact Housing Unit inside the caravan in a
location where it is convenient to store a container.
e.g. the washroom or under the sink etc.
The blanking plug (Fig 5) must be fitted to blank
off the unused Compact or Filter system.
fig. 5
Special instructions are supplied with the
Ultraflow winter kit.
During the winter when the caravan or motor
home is not in use, it is advisable to remove
the filter to avoid any retained water within the
filter freezing.

Water level indicator display is on the digital
electrical control panel located adjacent to
the habitation door. The fresh water is moved
through the system by Shurflo RV fresh
water pump.
waste tank

the vehicle, just behind the rear wheels and
incorporates a drain tap and inspection cap.

operating the system. The dust cover (7) is to
stop contaminates falling into the water container.
To remove the pump assembly from the
Ultraflow Filter Housing, pull the lower trigger
and pull out the hose plug.
warnInG: do not remove by pulling the
hose or electric cable.
routine maintenance
1. Ensure that the O-ring seal on the hose
plug and socket are free from dirt.
2. To aid fitting of the plug assembly smear
the O-ring with vegetable oil.
3. To change the filter, turn the filter cap anti-
clockwise and pull out the filter (Fig 3).

4. After installation, please drain off the first
Litres until the filtrate is clear.
Maximum filtering efficiency (cleaning effect)
can only be achieved if the filter is changed at
regular intervals. The filter must be changed
within 35 days of initial use, even if it was
not in use during this time. Please remember
that water is a foodstuff. We recommend that
filtered water is consumed within 1-2 days
and advise you to drain the system after long
periods of disuse.
Use dial on the filter housing (Fig 4) for guidance
to replace after approx. 35 days of use.
notes:
1. Never allow the pump to run dry.
Always ensure that the pump is submerged
In the water or the lifetime of the pump will
be reduced.
