If you’ve searched for water and there is none then here’s number 2. If you’re hooked up to city water and you’ve the pump switch on at the control board then it’s gonna run constantly. Shut it off. When hooked up to city water you do not need that pump on. Only when your drawing off your fresh water tank which is located under the bed as well. Running on city water gives you all the pressure you need.

Seadog, thanks for your reply. I am not sure why I would presume to have a leak when there is water coming out from under the bed at the foot. It is strange that the pump would be there as that is part of the bed and the entire bed moves out in a slide. Not saying that it is not as I would bow to your knowledge but just seems not logical to put piping for water on a moving platform.
I understand that I do not need the pump on with city water connected. I have received other responses that state that there is a check valve within the pump that could be clogged and thus preventing the pressure from building and therefore allowing the pump to cut off after said pressure has built up.
With the info coming in, I am leaning toward the pump check valve being clogged with calcium build up. Both the bathroom sink and shower head were completely clogged and I used Lime-a-way and they work fine now.
Would that check valve clogged cause a water leak? I can see where if clogged, it would allow the fresh water tank to fill up when connected to city water. It for sure is doing that. I can take the cap off the manual fill port and water will gush out. With the cap on, it just leaks water constantly until I turn off the city water then after a bit, it stops.
Taking it in Wednesday and letting someone check it out. Probably end up with a new pump or new filter/check valve.
Again, thanks for your input. That s what makes these web sites so great!!
