    Drain lines

    Just bought a class b Nova. Looking underneath and saw multiple drain lines leaving the unit. Some had expanded foam while others had nothing. Should they all have foam? I noticed the fresh water tank drain lines had no foam. Is it due to if there was a leak in the fresh water tank the water...

    Shower not Draining

    We've run a snake and there doesn't appear to be a clog. What are your thoughts on running a vinegar and baking soda solution through the drain? Other places we should check? Our shower doesn't have a "crawl space" immediately under it. Sits on the floor. Thank you!

    Coach batteries draining

    Love this site! Purchased a 2019 Georgetown 36BH5 with 7100 miles on it and drove it home from Indy to San Diego over Thanksgiving week. Love it! However… the coach batteries drain when by themselves overnight to the point the steps will not operate until I either start the engine or run the...

    How do you drain the Fressh water tank on a SS550?

    I just purchased a 2021 SS550 truck camper. The dealer was nice enough to fill up the fresh water tank but I don’t really want to leave it full while in storage and don’t want the extra weight if I don’t need it. Other than running the pump dry, how can I drain the fresh water tank?

    How important are low point drains ?

    Winterizing my 2021 Minilite 2506s for the first time today. Looked for the low point drains - turns out that Rockwood remembered the “Low point drain” sticker on the side of the trailer between the axles but unless I’m a complete idiot (which is quite possible) they forgot to install the low...

    Quick Valve/Drain Valve Question from a Newbie Please/

    So on the bottom of the fresh water tank in our Flagstaff E pro 2019FBS there is a drain valve that you turn 90° to drain the tank. Turning it back down shuts the drain off. Just to the right of that is another valve that appears to be a water line coming from some where up above and going into...

    Where are '21 Wildwood 26DBUD low point drains

    Does anyone know where these are located? I worked my way all the way around the trailer and can't find them. Is it possible they are up inside the "Heated & Enclosed Accessibelly w/ Removable Underbelly Panels"? I'm also surprised that my fresh water drain is a 2" gate valve. Thanks in advance.

    Fr3 fresh water tank not draining all the way

    I am new to winterizing this rig. I located the drain line pulled the plugs to both. I can still see water in the bottom of the tank. When touring the lines I do not see how they could completely drain the tank. Will this be ok or is there another drain I’m missing? The water line is just...

    Sink and shower drain issues

    The drain in my kitchen sink wouldn't drain to the point I had to pull the pipes and drain it that way, and now my shower is having the same issue. I've tried draino, snakes, and in desperate times I even tried a plunger..

    Low Point Drain(s) ?

    Good morning everyone. This past weekend we unfortunately needed to winterize the Shamrock due to freezing temperatures up here in Pennsylvania. Doing so on our new 2021.5 Shamrock 21SS seemed to be pretty straight forward, almost too easy! Haha. My only hiccup in doing the winterization process...

    How to connect a drain hose?

    Hi New to me Palomino Backpack, which does not come with a sink grey water tank. It drains directly out via this hose output. But the problem is for me, look at the silly place they chose to stick the thing. This picture is taken with the camper raised a few inches, but if I try to put any sort...

    Where are my low point drains???

    This is my first year winterizing my 2018 heritage glen 282RK. I decided I wanted to blow out the lines and went under the unit to open my low point drains. There is only one port under there and it was already open! I think it must be for the on board, fresh water tank which I never use. Is...
