advice on setup

[Terry]

I am looking for (i guess) an owner's manual that can help identify water hookup pipes and wiring diagrams for my MH. It is a double wide with everything water related in the back half except for the second bathroom. none of the pipes are labeled and so I am not sure which pipes are in and which are out. If you can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Terry Smith

I don't think what you are looking for would be covered in a manual. The small lines connected to the faucet, are water lines. The large black lines connected to the bottom of the sinks, etc are drain lines. The water lines cross from the "wet" side of the home to the other bath by way of a "crossover". This is simply a connection beneath the home, one hot, and one cold. The electric also "crosses over" between the two sections of the home similarly.

so when connecting the water lines to the underside of the house from the utility outlet, how would I determine which is the sewer/drain and which is the incoming fresh water? I am trying to do this myself and save some money. the city does not require a permit to hook the water up and it seems easy enough except that I am not sure which pipes under the house are out and which are incoming.
Thanks for your help

The water line drops directly out of the water heater, in most instances. It will be 3/4" line or the like, and may have a cut off valve in place. The sewer line is a 3" black plastic line, dropping out of a commode, and extending thru the bottom board of the home. Remember it has to have a "down hill" slope to drain.

Proper and complete set up of a doublewide is a complex task for a professional to do....If you are still learning the difference between a sewer line and water line...I would suggest you contract the whole set up to a pro...for your peace of mind and your families safety......
