When using the fresh water pump on our rig this past weekend when I turned the pump on It blows water out the city water hook up. Is there not a Check Valve on the city hook up on Heartlnd rigs and if not how do you build pressure. Whats the trick??

Thanks,

Yes, there should be a check valve at the city water connection. Try removing the screen on the outside and poke your little finger in and push the valve a bit. It should reset. If that doesn't work, you can temporarily get a plastic or brass garden hose plug at most RV dealers. If your rig is still under warranty, your dealer should replace the defective valve. If it's not already a brass one, ask them for an upgrade to brass.
