    Shower drain started to leak. Determined that putty/sealant/gaskets for the drain next to the shower floor (pan) had failed. I mention all those things since they are all present. In addition to a black, flexible gasket, I see what looks likes a cardboard one. A spacer? They used a...

    Hello All, Have a new to us truck camper ( Alpenlite ) . The previous owner drained the tanks prior to winter and we are now trying to fill tanks for a trip. Unfortunately, the drain valves seem to be "stuck" in the open position, and thus water simply drains back out. Not sure hoe to close...

    bathroom sink drain stopper

    When trying to use the bathroom sink to wash up I invariably knock the drain plug out. Does anyone know if it can be replaced with a popup? That would be flush with the sink. I looked at the drain and the section for the popup lever can be replaced but I didn't think to look at the drain...

    Add new larger Fresh water tank drain

    My Forester has a small pex hose draining the water and it takes forever. Obviously, adding another outlet to the tank is not an optiion. Has anyone tried putting a "Y" at the base of the filler tube and added a ball valve? I think that hose is 1" and would surely drain the tank in no time...

    I have recently purchased a 2003 Lexington. Could someone tell me where the Clean water drain is located.

    Residential Refrigerator defrost drain/pan

    When our 33IK silverback sits for a few months (florida) we get a bit of surface mold primarily in the kitchen area. I don't believe we have any leaks but we are starting to think it may be from water sitting in the drain pan of the refrigerator. Does anyone know if there is a drain line that...

    Shower Drain Very Slow To Drain

    I have a 2019 Salem Grand Villa 42 DL. In the past couple of weeks the shower drain has been very slow to drain. I have used a snake, enzyme drain cleaner and baking soda and vinegar to try and fix the problem. Nothing has worked. I was told it could be a clogged vent. My question is, if that is...

    2021 Isata 3 gray water drain

    Just came back from a trip and went to drain the tanks. When I took the cap off I was greeted with a rush of pink water. This would have been from the gray tank since I hadn’t drained it since unwinterizing. The valve seems spongy when I push the handle to shut it as opposed to a definite...

    Any recommendations on rerouting or adding a shield to the low point drains on a nobo 19.8? They hang low and can easily be damaged by a small rock or obstacle.

    Low point drain cap

    Ok went back to my rig today and inspected the low point drain caps. I am assuming there should be some sort of rubber gasket in these. All I see is plastic. I guess I found my dripping problem [emoji23]
