2012 Access Fresh Water Tank Fill?

[coachmanrvr]

New rig owner here and looking to see if there is another way other than the gravity fill to fill my fresh water tank? The owners manual talks about a fill valve, but no pics of it and I can't seem to find one?

Any help would be appreciated.

You could call the dealer you got it from, but it shouldn't be that difficult. It will be in one of your outside cabinets, likely the wet bay (where the sewer is hooked up), or close to it. There will also likely be a lever to allow you to select either tank fill or to just use it as it comes out of the hose. Good luck.

I'm a LONG time RV'r and I just don't see it. We have owned 3 (2 class C's and one class A). I understand your comment exactly, but it is just not here. I'll talk to the dealer on Monday. I'll plumb one in if I have too, the gravity fill only just won't do.

Thanks,
Charlie

Talked to Winne support yesterday and they said no fill valve for fresh water on my rig. There is not now, but there soon will be. Got to get in there and figure out how to get it done.

After a good bit of research...done.

To the left inside the large storage bay, added a 90deg cut off that tapped into the city water supply. It's nuts that Winnie doesn't have this on the stock coach. 30 to 40 bucks in valves and some pex pipe.


Also plumbed in another water tank with this upgrade. Added another 30 gal.


Painted and screwed down 2x4s secure the tank from sliding and it is wedged against the bottom of the bed so it can't go anywhere. We've road tested camping a couple of times and this gives us 4 showers now.
