Water Pump vs. Mains Water
Turn on the water pump when:
- Youāre using water from the caravanās internal tanks (e.g. off-grid).
- You want to use the sink, shower, or toilet while not connected to mains water.
- You need to fill the hot water system before turning it on.
Important:
Always make sure the water pump is on before turning on the Swift Hot Water Service. Running it dry can damage the unit and void the warranty.
š When not to use the water pump
If youāre connected to mains water at a caravan park, you do not need to turn on the pump. The mains pressure will directly feed water to your:
- Sink
- Shower
- Toilet
- Hot water system
This setup bypasses the tanks and pump.
š§ How to connect mains water to your caravan
- Locate theĀ Snap-On connectorĀ behind theĀ driver-side wheel guard.
- Attach your hose to this connection ā itās plug-and-play.
- Once connected, water flows directly to your plumbing system. ItĀ does not fill your water tanks.
Tips
- TurnĀ offĀ the water pump when not in use or when leaving the caravan unattended.
- This prevents unnecessary battery drain and protects against leaks.
