Water pump location

For a 2009/2010 model 2980RL.

Any ideas? My rig is packed full from roof to basement and I hope to not have to empty the basement without knowing the water pump is behind that wall!

Thanks in advance!

Every Montana I've ever owned has had the water pump right behind the convienence center. Just take basement wall piece that covers that area off, just a few screws and you'll see it.

We've had two SOBs after our Monty and they also have the water pump right behind the convenience Center.

While you are at it, you can install noise dampers (padding under the pump screws, and on the pipes).

On my 2006 3000RK the pump is on the curb side, forward of the furnace. I remove the basement wall piece, left of the curb side pass through/basement door. On mine the wall piece is actually held in place with pivoting clips. No tools required. If yours is like mine just turn the pump on and walk around the rig. You'll hear it!

Thanks! That is what I figured so now I get to empty the basement and get to work.

Thanks for the replies and suggestions!

While you have it open, add a water accumulater to reduce water pump cycling.
