can't get water system to pressurize

[krminyl@...]

Make sure your water fill switch is off, and your drain switch is off. The
switches that control the water heater drain, etc, should be checked to make
sure one of the switches weren't inadvertently put in the wrong position.

If this fails, it could be the sporlan valve. BB has rebuild kits for
around 20 bucks, or maybe you could just take your's apart, make sure it's clean
and free from any debris (calcium deposits and even a small grain of sand can
cause the sporlan valve not to close/open properly). Also, check the little
screen where you attach the shoreline hose...it gets clogged easily. If you
get normal pressure at some outlets, and not at others, check the screen on
the faucet spout...this commonly gets clogged with sediment and small
particles of sand, etc, which restricts the water flow. Rarely is it the
shoreline
valve (the place where you attach the garden hose).

Good luck.
