As some of you may know my solution to the Atwood problem was to install an in line electric 7 gallon hot water heater. This has actually done a lot more than solve the Atwood problem. It also takes care of the delay and the "cold sandwich" which happens with ANY on demand propane heater located...
I've a 2011 Berkshire 390BH that has a Suburban 10 gal hot water tank. It appears to be leaking from the heating element chamber that extends into the tank. All fixtures are fine etc., rod is new and no leaks, pressure valve is dry, but when I look into the element chamber there is water...
I have checked the outdoor shower, the shut valve is open on the shower head and water is off.
I can turn the hot water side on the faucet in the shower only a quarter of the way to sometimes get a trickle and sometimes bearly enough to get mix with cold to get the shower head to function and...
2010 Flagstaff in new condition (stored in climate controlled shop since new; used 5 times). Everything works like new...except hot water heater on propane side. It ignites perfectly; clean blue flame...but it won’t shut off. I’ve replace the ECO/TSTAT 12V under black cover, to no improvement...
I am living full time in a Forest River Salem Cruise Lite 2017 rbxl and am a complete newbie. And to be totally honest, I am a girl that's not very mechanically inclined. Everything runs off of electricity except the hot water heater and stove. When taking a shower last evening, I ran out of hot...
We purchased a new 2019 Forest River Cherokee 274vfk. We love everything about the RV except for the performance of the hot water heater. Our previous Starcraft RV had a manual-light gas 6 gallon Suburban hot water heater and my wife and I could take showers one after the other and never run...
We have no hot water. We have never turned the tank heater on at the control panel and always had hot water. We are currently fully hooked up. We just had our rv Winterized and then dewinterized as we came south. Is there something we now need to do to get hot water?
Had our unit checked out at dealer this summer as it had failed and we had no hot water (despite tech support from Girard, replace sail valve,replace brain box) and dealer said there was nothing wrong. We used the unit in South Dakota for a month without incident. Now in Arizona for the winter...
We finally winterized our Salem LA last night. Hubby and a friend started it before I got there. They had the electric plugged in, pulled the anode rode to drain the hot water heater, then were blowing the system out when there was a LOUD explosion. I was on the door side of the camper and...
Hi Everyone,
New to RV'ing here, just purchased a 26DBH-L. This past weekend we took it out for the first time and the question is, when taking a shower the hot water runs out before I have a chance to finish, and I am fairly quick. Is this normal? We were connected to 110V and city water...
First time this happened: Plenty of hot water for a couple of showers. Two showers had only 2-3 minutes of hot water. I let the WH run until it shut downs between showers. Any thoughts?
I have a Grey Wolf 2013 26R. I recently took ownership of the TT in divorce settlement and moved to New Mexico. It had been winterized the previous fall and had not been readied for camping in the spring due to the divorce. I read how to de-winterize, watched YouTube videos, drained the pink...

Just noticed when taking shower that hot water seems to be running out. Never happened before. Connected to power. Could this be thermostat or element?? Water is hot but just not lasting thru shower. Thanks in advance for your help!!!
Hi all! This year we noticed a significant sulfur smell from our kitchen hot water tap. I’ve read the smell can be caused by a reaction with the magnesium anode rod and that it might be fixed by using a magnesium rod. Can anyone verify that so I can decide what to do next spring? The smell...
On my 2014 3010DS there are two drains - one hot and one cold - underneath the water closet in the basement where the drinking water filter and pump are located. The cold one is valved at that point, the hot one is not. Is there a reason for this?
Is the hot water one controlled by the valve...

Hello all. First time rv owner here. Doing winterization I drained the hot water tank. My question is there seems to still be some water in the bottom. (Stuck my finger in the hole and felt water) is this ok/normal? If not how do I get it out? Also please refresh my memory as it was a lot to...
