Filling freshwater tank using winterizing port.
Take 5 gal bucket of freshwater. Connect a pickup hose to the winterizing port (sometimes you have to use 2 washers to make a good seal). Put the open end into the bucket of water. The bucket must be level to or higher than the winterizing port. Turn winterize valve to "ON". Connect the shower hose to city water connection. Turn "Normal flow/Fill" valve to "Fill". Turn water pump on and open cold water side of shower. Water will draw from 5 gal jug go thru shower hose into city water connection right into tank.

You can also fill the freshwater tank through the drain valve at the bottom. I added a garden hose valve.

Also get an inline garden hose water meter. I know from empty (water pump cavitation) to full, running out the vent at the back, it takes 42 gallons.
