We have a 2013 Silverback 33RL with the pre -Nautilus control panel and I'm interested in sanitizing my fresh water tank when we resume camping this fall and winter.
I would appreciate input for this model year on the correct procedure to use to add sanitizer to the fresh water tank using the...
Have not used our heated fresh water hose since winter of 2022. Been stored with end caps on the male & female ends. Always drain the water with gravity method before putting them away.
Do I need to bleach the fresh water hose before using it again?
Run water through it for 3-5 minutes, will...
On our last camping trip of the 22 season, I seemed to have a malfunction in our fresh water system. Here is the scenario:
Connected the campground water to our rig. The lever is set to city water....the other direction of the lever sends the city water to the fresh water tank. After several...
Hello !
ive got a 2019 5th wh super lite flagstaff 528IKWS REAR living rm and it appears as though While hooked up at a campground our city water is overflowing into our fresh water tank so what happens is the freshwater tank is now overfilled and flowing out of a drain onto the ground? Is...
I am comfortable with the towability aspects of traveling with a full tank of fresh water (weight distribution, tongue weight, truck GVWR, etc). What I am curious about is the ability of the tank support structure to handle 450 lbs of water over the occasional pothole or bridge expansion joint...
I bought a 2014 5th wheel Rockwood ultralight rear lounge (8289WS) in 2017. Camped both dry and with hookups through 2020 when we parked it for COVID. Since 2022 we mainly use hookups for RVing because the city water works well. The fresh water tank doesn't allow water to the pump. I believe...
Hello
We have a 2021 Cedar Creek 385TH, and will be on a site without water. How do I use the on board water pump to add water to the tank from a water jug or bucket? I'm from Florida and never had to winterize, so i not sure how to set the valves to pull water into the tank.....
Thanks for...
I have a 2022 Rockwood 2806 BS. It’s cold where I’m at. Freezing temps cold. So I’ve been letting the water slightly drip during the nights. Then this morning I go out and hear water flowing. The bottom is foam insulated for winter. But I looked from an opening I made. And the leak is from the...
...anyone else get this, apparently when full, the tank can exit the trailer. I imagine that would be messy. Never been more than half full, but it does bulge.
Anyone had any issues? Anyone had the two straps installed?
Just wondering what I am in for and if anyone knows how long the...
Okay quick question. Our daughter has been living in our RV now for about 2 months. We are using the City Water Connect to provide water to the RV. I have never hooked up the Fresh Water supply. Today I noticed the overflow from the fresh tank dripping. When I checked the panel, it showed the...
The last several years I had the problem of filling the fresh water tank when connected to park water but not wanting to fill the tank. A problem expressed many times on the forum. Well here is the solution. Replaced the old valve with the new Anderson valve. Works like a charm. Photos show...
Location Fresh water tank drain Dynaquest XL 3801TS. rear bedroom ?
Checked under coach found two hoses, presumably overflow and drain but no valve. Underneath the hoses emerge from hard foam insulation, no valve is visible. I looked under the bed which is a real pain given the weight of the...
Had do you keep antifreeze from going to fresh water tank. Can not find a bypass valve or something to shut off. New to travel trailer being a Flagstaff 25rds micro. Have owned three fifth wheels and they were different. Thanks
Was a little disappointed that despite filling the fresh water tank to overflowing, the indicator never indicated full. During our second trip out in the new Wolf Pup, ran out of water on our second night during my shower :confused:. Thought something was a little strange when well after it...
So I've had a gaping hole in my fresh water tank since almost first owning it. I originally thought the hole was for a drain but after digging around I found wires. so I'm pretty sure it was the water pump that was torn off the tank. there is a tube hanging down as well. So it has damaged...
I have a 21 Cherokee Grey wolf. I am having 2 issues.
1. Back in July I had city water connected and water was coming out my fresh water tank over flow hose. So I turned the city water off and pulled the drain valve. I turned on the city water connection and a little bit later water started...
Approximately 2 years ago I replaced the water pump diaphragm and check valve. Didn’t need to remove the pump to complete the work. Did fine for two years and stopped pumping. Motor ran, buy no water.
This time I replaced the whole unit. Actually easier than replacing the element and not...
When does 50gal = 25 gal? When the outlet (to water pump) on the fresh water tank is mounted on the side of the tank and the tank bulges down. I've found the bare minimum amount of water I need to have in the tank is 20 gallons for the water pump to pull anything, which means to be somewhat...
I have a 2014 300st which only has a 40-gal fresh water/grey/black tank. Considering, I could park a VW underneath the RV, is there any reason I cannot upgrade the tanks to a larger size. Has anyone done this? All things being considered, this is the only downside to this model. I understand it...
OK I am having the same problem I cannot locate the fresh water drain valve.
I have bad water in my system and we are camping and I need to drain it as soon as possible!!
Been crawling around on my back been looking for over an hour.
thanks.

Does anyone know where the fresh water tank drain is on an Apex Ultralite 245 bhs. It has an enclosed underbelly. I know where the low point drain plugs are, but can’t see the fresh water tank drain.
I thought this might be useful to share. Didn't know there was such a thing until I researched it. Our Force HD had a gravity fill, but our XL doesn't. The winterization pick-up tub bypasses the tank.

OK
So there are two water hookups for fresh water. A "city" water hook up and a water hook up that a regular water hose connects to. ( I do use a pressure regulator) A couple of questions I cant get a grasp on, prob cause I tend to overthink things
1. If just using the water hook up (garden...
