Heater Craft 700S Series Wash Down - Manual (Page 4)

Recommendations
3
Important Note: We recommend that the wash down pump is not mounted into the bilge, or any location
or in such a manner that it would be easily submerged. The warranty for the pump may be void if, upon
disassembly, Heater Craft determines that the pump has been submerged in water for any length of time.
1. Review Heater Craft installation instructions and warranty information completely before beginning
installation.
2. Lay out the wash down system in the boat before beginning installation to be sure the mounting location
for all components, as well as the routing of water hoses and wiring will be sufficient (see general diagram
below)
3. Use silicone sealant or Teflon tape on the threads of all brass fittings before installing to prevent water
leakage.
4. Hoses and wiring should be routed away from moving parts, high heat sources such as engine exhaust
manifolds, and secured to prevent penetration from sharp objects or edges. All water hoses and wiring
should be as short as possible for efficiency. Water hoses should be routed to prevent any kinking or
pinching that may restrict water flow.
5. Wash down components should not be installed on or near high heat sources such as engine exhaust
manifolds.
6. Hose clamps should be fastened near the end of the hose to prevent the hose end from
"mushrooming", and to prevent leakage.
7. The wash down pump, water hoses, and all components should be winterized by draining the water to
prevent damage caused by freezing.
8. Applications may vary! If you have any questions or suggestions regarding your Heater Craft product,
please contact our main office.
