- The problem
- On certain motor homes, there is no option to sanitize the fresh water tanks and to prevent back-flow from the water pump.
- The risk
- CONTAMINATION OF THE WATER HOSE COULD OCCUR.
- The fix
- Dealers will add a hose assembly with a valve to route the sanitation solution to the fresh tank. Also a back flow preventor will be added to the fresh water intake to prevent the water from the fresh tank from contacting the fresh hose. Owner notification began september 17, 2003. Owners should contact jayco at 1-574-825-0608.
