Nautilus P2.5 "Tank Fill" Instructions incorrect ?

[PeterInNH]

Hi All,

Ok, in reading thru the Manual supplied it first says (on p4 of the instructions - the pdf was supplied in a previous post) - the Green diverter handle is supposed to facing DOWN. However, a couple of pages later (p6) it says the Green diverter handle should be facing LEFT.

It seems if it's LEFT then it's going to be forcing water into the tank thru the watter pump ?

Anyway, which is correct ?

Thanks !

I follow the sticker on the panel and works in all of the settings.

So to Power Fill to Tank from City Water connection, the Green is Left, while White & Blue are down.

Sorry for the glare , it's the only picture I have at the moment. Also in that picture, my valves are set for Dry Camping, so the pump when activated will draw water from the fresh tank and pressurize the plumbing to all the fixtures.

Hi,

Well, thanks for the reply but I apparently have an entirely different version of that panel - no White knob.

From the manual for mine - on one page it says the Green should be DOWN for water to be directed to the fresh water tank, but then 2 pages later it says the Green should be LEFT for "Tank Fill". I'm just confused as to which position is correct to basically bypass the water pump and dump water directly into the Fresh Water Tank.

Thoughts ?

Thanks !

The manufactures website has great info. Here's a link to plumbing schematic

You're reading in to deep. Follow the sticker on the panel.
Green Left, Blue Down to fill your tank with pressurized City Water.

Yeah, a bit ocd when I read manuals - decades of being in the IT business I guess. lol

Anyway, yes, I did follow the panel sticker and it seemed to work just fine. Letting it sit (in my driveway) right now with water in all the tanks, the tank heaters turned on and the heat blasting - if it survives the night without freezing up all over then it's ready for its first ski trip next weekend.

Fingers crossed

Thanks !
