    Do the water heater tanks need to be drained after each trip?

    Hello all, New 22 GeorgeTown 36B5 owner, while out camping last week a buddy said I needed to drain the two water heaters after every trip. Is this the case? Also is it as simple as turning off the propane, disconnecting the water source and turning on the faucet. Thanks for your insight.

    12rk hot water heater

    Has anyone tried to use a portable hot water heater with the 12RK? I am more interested in hooking up the hot water heater to the unused sink handle. I haven't dug around under the sink to see what that looks like. Might be a simple connector. Kurt

    Convenience Center Water Heater

    We have a 2017 Forest River FR3 30DS. We have done some work on the water heater and it is working properly. I am confused, though, on what the buttons on the Convenience Center do...does the "Water Heater On" button ignite the propane? Does the "Tank Heat" only heat the water in the hot...

    Water heater too hot?

    Finally used the water heater on our 2318G. Noticed that the area above the water heater (outside of camper) gets very hot, practically too hot to touch. I'm a bit concerned as the vinyl overhang from the dinette rests there. Is this normal? Any way of adjusting the flame? (Which I suspect...

    2022 Alpha Wolf 26dbh-l water heater

    OK now that I figured out how to get water in the tank and had hot water (propane option) we no longer have hot water. We have tried multiple times to relight the water heater but it's just not working. We turned the stove on to make sure our propane bottles still had propane and they came on...

    Water heater drain mod

    Just thought I'd share this to see if it helps anyone. I did not like removing the plug each time after camping and the petcock drain seemed problematic to me. I have attached pics to show my solution. Simply screw in the Sharkbite male adapter (use plumbing tape on threads) and attach the...

    What is this water heater part??

    So I took a short overnight shake down trip in my new wolf pup. After getting everything setup I realized my hot water heater was not working. I believe it is a dometic wh-6gea. Well, got it home and did some poking around with a multimeter and found a small part to be faulty. Pulled it and...

    Flagstaff Water Heater

    I bought a 2011 Flagstaff 5th wheel. I got it used and no manual came with it. The switch for the propane heater is clearly marked on a panel in the entry. Looking up the specs on-line it says its a dual electric/propane heater, but I'll be damned if I can find a switch for the electric...

    Theater seats' leg rests need a lot of force to close

    The force required to close the leg rests is enough to cause the entire RV to shake. Don't want it to cause issues to the slide floor it's all attached to or anything similar. Tried adjusting the location of the springs on the front-inside of the theater seats but that made things worse. Any...

    Okay so we bought a new Apex Nano 208bhs last year and I made a rookie mistake and plugged in the trailer while the heater was switched on before I added water. Of course this burnt out the element. I have since replaced the element and it is now heating. The only problem is the light on the...

    Flimsy panels around water heater

    I have a Mini-Lite 2504S and the flimsy panels around the water pump/water heater make it nearly impossible for my short arms to reach all the bypass valves. Do most of y’all just remove the panels and leave them off? Or cut sections out of them? Or is there a clever mod? I keep quite a bit of...
