C. Water Heating Systems
J - 2 PRESSURIZED WATER SYSTEM
A.water.heater.is.a.standard.feature.available.on.the.
®
348.Vista .models..The.capacity.of.the.water.heater.
may.be.found.on.our.website.at.www.fourwinns.com..
Refer.to.Figure.J-2.and.to.the.drawings.at.the.end.of.
this.section.
The.water.pump.is.an.automatic,.on-off,.self-priming.
pump.that.can.service.several.outlets.at.once..The.
pump.will.build.up.water.pressure.and.will.turn.off.
when.it.reaches.65.psi..Refer.to.Figure.J-1.and.the.
drawings.at.the.end.of.this.section..
NOTICE
Water heater location may vary due to the
installation of optional equipment.
A. Priming the System
After filling the water tank, open all faucets partially.
Activate.the.FRESH.WATER.circuit.breaker.switch..
on.the.cabin.AC/DC.panel.to.supply.the.system.with.
water..Let.the.pump.run.until.water.comes.out.of.the.
galley.faucet,.head.faucet.and.transom.shower.
The.water.heater.utilizes.120.volt.(220.volt.on.50.
Hertz.models).power..The.water.heater.breaker.switch.
is.located.on.the.cabin.120.Volt.AC.panel.
After.all.the.air.has.been.purged.from.the.system.and.
a steady flow of water is coming from each outlet, turn
off.the.faucets.one.by.one..Begin.with.the.cold.water.
faucets.and.continue.until.all.faucets.are.shut.off..As.
the.pressure.builds,.the.pump.will.automatically.shut.
off.at.65.psi..Refer.to.Section.H-5.-.12.Volt.Electrical.
Equipment.and.the.manufacturer’s.literature.included.
in.the.owner’s.packet.for.additional.information.
NOTICE
DO NOT supply 0 volt power to an empty
water heater. Damage to the heater will result
immediately. The water system must be filled
and primed before attempting to use the water
heater.
B. System Operation
When.properly.primed.and.activated,.the.pressurized.
water.system.can.be.used.in.the.same.manner.as..
the.water.system.in.a.home..An.automatic.pressure.
sensor.in.the.water.pump.keeps.the.system.pressur-
ized..Simply.turn.on.the.faucet.and.water.will.be.
delivered. If the system has been recently filled, or .
has.not.been.used.for.an.extended.period.of.time,..
air.bubbles.may.accumulate.at.the.pump.and/or.in..
the.waterlines..If.this.should.happen,.re-priming.may.
be.necessary..Refer.to.the.preceding.subsection.
regarding.priming.the.system.
Figure J-2: Water Heater Location
On.the.348.Vista .models.the.water.heater.incorpo-

rates.a.heat.exchanger..The.heat.exchanger.allows.
the.engine.coolant.to.heat.a.portion.of.the.fresh.water.
supply.while.the.engines.are.operating..This.option.
will.provide.hot.water.at.times.when.120.volt.power.is.
