[C320-list] FRESH WATER POOLING

[John Frost]

If you have even a small leak from the fresh water system, hot or cold, you
should hear the pump cycle on its own pretty frequently. There is no
accumulator, so as soon as a few drops leak out, the pressure drops and the
pump comes on for a moment. If you are not hearing this, I would look
elsewhere for water entry.

Happy Sailing!

Hi 320 lovers...
 
I have Hull 1150 and at the junction box under the first floor veiwing plate
water pools in the area when I leave the FRESHWATER PUMP SWITCH on.
Obviously the pressure then forces it to leak somewhere.
We thought it was one of the fittings...but I just had them replaced and it
is till happenig.
 
Note that the recent discussions on this mailing list talked about heater
leaks and more but the floor under the heater and inside where the kitchen
draws are is dry as.
 
Any Ideas?... I'd suggest more recent hulls may have similar issues? 
 
 
 
Kind regards & Thanks
