On board a boat, plumbing is everywhere ! There's the piping system that runs from the nables to the tanks, the pipes that run from the tanks to the sinks and wash basins on board to provide sea water or fresh water, or the ones that feed the showerhead, in the cockpit or on the rear platform of your unit.
Beyond the water supply, you also need to think about the gas supply : to use your boat gas stove or your gas fridge, your ship also needs to have special pipes, also well installed. Finally, for toilets and diesel tanks, gray water or black water, it is also a question of plumbing !
Because the condition of the plumbing on your boat determines your comfort on board and there are many possibilities for breakdowns, we recommend regular maintenance, to prevent any technical problems that might prevent you from enjoying your equipment.

It's important to maintain your boat's plumbing to ensure efficient, reliable operation of the water systems on board. Well-maintained plumbing reduces the risk of leaks, blockages and malfunctions, ensuring comfort and safety on board.
Common plumbing items on a boat include water pumps, freshwater and wastewater tanks, faucets, sinks, showers, marine toilets and water distribution pipes.
To prevent water leaks on a boat, it's essential to regularly check fittings, seals and hoses for wear and damage. We recommend replacing them if necessary, and ensuring that all connections are tight.
To maintain your boat's water pumps, it's important to clean them regularly, check the condition of seals and valves, make sure filters are clean, and lubricate moving components where necessary. Follow the manufacturer's specific instructions.
To winterize your boat's plumbing, we recommend draining all water tanks, bleeding pipes and pumps, making sure valves are closed and protecting parts exposed to frost with thermal insulation or auxiliary heating.
To unclog a sink or shower on a boat, you can use specific unclogging products for boats, or natural remedies such as vinegar and baking soda. The use of a plunger can also help clear blockages. If the problem persists, contact Boatngo to schedule a service.
To repair a leaking marine toilet, it is often necessary to replace the seals or defective valves. We recommend consulting the toilet's user manual, or calling in a professional to carry out the repair.
To avoid unpleasant odors in the boat's plumbing, we recommend regular cleaning of wastewater systems, use of specific deodorizing products for boats, keeping valves closed whenever possible, and adequate ventilation of wastewater tank storage spaces.
