I have a 2016 Georgetown with a 10 gal Suburban propane/electric water heater. Until yesterday, everything was fine. We normally run it on electric. Now it heats fine on propane but nothing on electric. I've tried diagnostics and have power all the way to and including the element. Checked...

So I’m blew the water lines on rig for the winter. I remember shutting the water off to the water heaters so that I could build up the pressure on the other lines once I took out the Anirod Rods and had blown the hot water tank. So I have no hot water in either tank or they’re not firing up...

Hello All, hopefully this is a silly question. First time owner of a 2017 23KW toy hauler. I bought it used and it doesn't look like the prior owner ever even used it, quite literally. Prior to trying to use the hot water, I went through the steps that I noted online: 1 - vented air from the...

Last fall I drained and blew out the water lines and Hot water tank with air pressure - or so I thought. Had to prime the pump to get it going today. Could hear the hot water tank filling up but at some point water started gushing out of the cupboards. I pulled the cabinets apart as best I...

I have yet another question for the community.... Has anyone heard of keeping the hot water heater by-pass, by-passing the water heater all the time? We don't use the shower as its a storage closet for all our stuff. And we have in the past just heated water in a pan for the various washing with...

Don't have the model right off hand but I drained the WH and NO impurities came out - just plain, clean water. I'm new to this and was thinking the anode rod was shot. But it has no anode rod. What other apparatus would cause the problem? What's an estimated cost on a repair? Thx a mil!

2006 Rockwood Roo 23SS. I am a total rookie, and I assume my issue is based on my lack of knowledge. Did my first camping trip this weekend, no hot water. I don't think I was ever able to get the heater to ignite. I tested before leaving my house and was able to get hot water; however when I...
