Fresh water fill

We are out for our first weekend "shakedown" of our 08 Nimbus 338 and have noticed that the fresh water tank level slowly creeps up over the course of a day or so..We are hooked to shore water and if we hit the fill switch hear water rush into the tank, but was thinking maybe this valve is slowly leaking by and filling the tank. Where is the valve located and is it replaceable easily? Headed to Nacogdoches next month for some stuff, should I just have them do it? Other than that the weekend is going well...just learning ...

Can't give specific location (not familiar with the newer models) but can tell you that Foretravel tends to put all the fresh water equipment in the same general area.  Look in the bay where you find your water pump and water pressure tank (usually blue).  The links below may give you some clues as to what to look for.
