Hello all. Brand new to this forum. My family just bought our first travel trailer, a Forest River Wildwood 31KQBTS. This weekend was our first outing and just about everything went well except for the hot water. We had a full water heater that was plenty hot. The issue we are having is we...
I just picked up a new 2022 Dynamax Isata 30FW and the water in the shower is just barely warm. It is a single swing handle shower with a detached head. I can't see the brand and there is no info in the user manual that I can see. Dynamax service was nice enough to send me a picture but the...
Two days ago (March 17, 2022) my wife and i traded our 2020 Berkshire 39A that was damaged from Hurricane Ida last Aug. in south Louisiana. We purchased a new 2022 Berkshire 40-D from Berryland motors in Hammond, LA. We are on our first trip in our new coach headed to NM. We are currently...
Is there anyway to adjust the temperature on the shower valve on a dynamax isata 3. Water is very hot at both kitchen and bath sinks but shower only gets lukewarm.
We aren’t getting any hot water from the kitchen or bath. We spent several hours tracing and found that When the dinette is pushed in the pressure is there but when it is out we have no hot water. Outside of completely ripping out the floor, is there a fix for this? It seems like a bad design or...
We took our 2017 Cardinal Model 3250RL on a short camping trip to check out the various systems. We purchased this used unit about 3 months ago. When we got to the campsite we had hot water with the propane side of the the heater. Have not confirmed that the 120v side works. It worked...
Reading the thread about needing a water pressure regulator so you don't burst your plumbing with campground pressures got me to thinking.
The safety value on the hot water tank doesn't release until 150 psi. If our plumbing will leak well below that (if you believe what people post), why have...
Hello,
I have a 2021 Cherokee Gray Wolf and the hot water is leaking from the red line connected to a 90% elbow that feed the faucet. The hose clamp seems to be where it is dripping from. I just have a couple of questions.
1. Should I just cut the tubing from where the clamp is, replace the...
Hello,
Regarding the hot water from the bathroom sink and shower: It heats up very quickly, and rarely starts to cool down -- which is good!
However, regarding the kitchen sink: It take a little while to heat up, and as I wash dishes (by hand) it will begin to cool before I can finish.
Is...
I took her out in November when it was in the low 30s and upper 20s at night, and now again with the temps in the teens the past few nights. In November everything went well, no hiccups. Started camping 2 days ago and no issues until this morning when I couldn't get water. First I thought it was...
Hello all, I have a 2019 XLR Thunderbolt. I purchased new and since I purchased have had a problem with the hot water getting to the shower. I can get it to work by turning on the sink faucet but then I lose pressure. I have taken it to the shop 3 times and still have the problem.
Bottom...
I need to replace my 6g suburban electric/gas water heater on my 2019 Roo 233s. I am considering replacing with a tankless hot water heater. Does anyone have experience with this type of replacement/upgrade?
I found this somewhere in the past on the forum and trying to spec parts for it now. I thought the following would work:
1/2" brass male to male adapter
1/2" braided hose appx. 12-18" in length
1/2" small cut-off valve
But can I use a brass adapter fitting in the Atwood drain or should this...
Hello again. New problem with the lower side panel where the hot water/ outside grill connection is. 2017 GT XL 378. So how do you get the panel off? I don't see how it comes off from the top. The bottom is just two L brackets. Do I have to take the water heater out? Thanks in advance.

I went( 30 miles one way )out to the storage lot to drain my hot water heater, taking a 15/16 th and a 7/8 th socket. Both Too Small. I was surprised as that has covered it in many prior RV;s This is a new FR 36 foot tow, could anyone tell me the correct size socket to remove the...
Sorry if this has already been posted I tried to look around but couldn’t find the answers I needed. First off we’re staying in our Rv now and we got hit with a freak winter storm.
So last night the kitchen sink stopped working. If in the cold position it will run water as soon as I turn it...
My apologies for a n00b post here. Cell signal isn't good at the campground so it was taking forever to search.
I need to know how to fill my hot water tank on city water. I winterized a month ago so I'm sure I left a valve closed, but I don't know which one. Cold water works but hot water tank...
We have a 2020 Sierra. Electricity works to heat hot water. However, if we select Hot water Heater on the inside panel, the dsi light appears and goes off.
We locked up our panel by letting it continue to use the dsi.
I have used the oven and range top.
Our heat is good also.
Pls...
Went to winterize trailer after last camping trip. When I pulled the water heater anode rod to drain there was no water in tank....Where did it go????? Had hot water while camping!! Did not see any leaks under trailer. Customer service did not have an answer.
My hot water is electric and gas OK it’s never worked right all the time but it works some of the time and there’s a switch on the outside to turn on and off ,I’m assuming that is the electric switch. My converter went bad so I changed it and I had hot water for three days on electric because I...
Good Morning All,
Probably a foolish question or maybe I just have never noticed. Is the electric hot water system supposed to make noise? I drained the tank in New England before I left for my trip. Put the anode back in and took off. Now I’m down in the Smokey’s using the system. It’s making...
We just bought a 2022 surveyor legend model 276bhle and on our maiden voyage this weekend cannot seem to get hot water. We made sure that the bypass valve was flipped and if there's water in the tank we have tried the electric and the propane at different times and neither times. The electric...
Where do I find my water heater bypass valve on my 192. Trying to google and search for location, but my googly fingers just aren't good enough to find it!!;)
Thanks!!
We have an Elec/Gas Dometic HWH
When on shore power, is it best to leave it on or shut it off...
I guess I'm asking, is it harder on the unit to stay hot or to heat from scratch 2-3 times per day
Maybe a similar question when boondocking and using gas to heat the water...
Thanks
Rick
