Hot water heater

How do i fill my hot water heater in 2011 coachman ? do i hook up water from hose and open hot water faucet ?
  • Yes, be sure the winterization bypass valves are in the proper positions, else you'll cook the water heater when you turn it on.

    Why do you want to heat hot water? :-)
  • It will fill automatically with the system in working mode, whether it's from the pressure water system or the water pump. You may need to open a faucet once in a while to allow air to escape as it is displaced by water filling the tank.
  • Assuming that the unit was winterized, check to see if the water heater bypass valves are in their proper position. Then merely hook a water hose to the inlet on the coach, turn the hot water spigot on and let it run until it quits spitting air. You're there!
